The Courage to Begin Again…

by Gigi

Hello Friend,
I wondered about you today. Are you enjoying these lazy days of summer?
We had a fabulous vacation at a Joni and Friends Family Camp in Murietta, California. We spent time with my California Devine cousins and even took in a day at Disneyland. I’ll post about that over the weekend.
Now I’m feeling called to write again. It is scary.
The past two years have been focused on the book I wrote with my son Gabe. We published it on April 13, 2012. It has been a fun journey of promoting this book and traveling with Gabe as he shares his message of HOPE with thousands of people.

My Message is C.L.E.A.R. - Hope and Strength in the Face of Life's Greatest Adversities

My Message is C.L.E.A.R. – Hope and Strength in the Face of Life’s Greatest Adversities


If you haven’t read it yet, it is available on Gabe’s website at http://GabeMurfitt.com
We’ve traveled to schools and churches where he has shared his courageous story of living in his unusually formed body. He is gearing up for the fall speaking season. If your school district needs a dynamic speaker, contact him for more information.
Now it’s time to have courage to begin again.
My next writing project is taking Gabe’s story a step further and creating a character development curriculum.
Next week I will be teaming up with some amazing teachers to chart out the lessons to help young students develop characteristics that include Courage, Leadership, Endurance, Attitude and Respect. These are the five letters in the acronym Gabe uses to tell his story. It is an exciting project!
We’ll start with Courage.

What does courage mean to you? I liked this definition.
Courage does not always roar
What area of your life are you asking for more courage?
I hope you’ll let me know on my website (in the comments section below) so I can pray for you.
Let’s have a courageous week – seeking the courage to do the things we are called to do. The courage to start or to begin AGAIN…
Bless your courageous heart,
courage1
Gigi
