Toward the end of last year I started to ask God what he was saying to me in the year 2012. I was expecting him to speak to me by way of a verse of scripture – something that I could really grab a hold of and run with this year. However with me and God it’s never that simple. He never makes it easy for me and instead of giving me a verse that would clearly set everything out for the year ahead he gave me a picture – a jigsaw picture – and he started giving it to me tiny piece by tiny piece.
The picture was of a well. From the beginning of December it seemed that every time I read the Bible I came across a story about a well, every time I picked up a book there was a story about a well. So, what I’m going to do with this blog is bring all the little pieces and put them together and see what kind of picture we can make. I don’t know what the well is – I think the well represents many things – me, God, other people, my creativity. There is no wrong answer and that’s what I love about this whole thing – the well will be whatever or whoever I need it to be at that particular time.
So will you come on this journey with me to see what God is trying to say?
Thinking that perhaps as you are at the well, then maybe you are drawing the water out for others. You are a teacher, coach, encourager and friend to people and your water motivates and inspires.
Or maybe you are drawing the water out of others?

i definitely see myself as someone drawing the water out of other wells. i am passionate about finding the treasure in others and priming it out of them.
