9. Journal Questions (be still with God and ask):
What suffering or problem that exists in the world does my particular past experience lead me to see?
What are my gifts? Strengths? Challenges? Where are these pointing me?
What is one small step I could take this week in the direction of my work?
Am I ready to ask God to help me walk this out, one step at a time?
