Reconstruction

Toward the beginning of 2010, I came across this article in which a columnist challenged people in the new year to look at a few things through fresh eyes, asking God to give you new insight on them. The writer listed 52 suggestions, one for every week of the year. I’m planning to work through the list this year, and I’ll link to blog entries about the topics here.
