What is God stirring in your heart? Sometimes He gives us a word in our quiet times or we feel Him at work during a Sunday sermon. My friends and I have discussed doing something like this for a long time and as I sat in church this morning I thought, “this is it…I’m going to figure out this linky thing and come up with a name”.
So without further ado, I proudly introduce: Sunday Stirrings.
It will be a place to link up and share how God has been speaking to you each week. A lot of us do that every now and then, but let’s be accountable to one another and commit to a weekly blog post. Then link it up over here so we can read, be inspired and encouraged.
Some weeks may be a simple outline from that morning’s sermon, or a verse that jumped off the pages and spoke volumes. Other times you may feel led to share something personal. I think that most of us will find that when we are intentional about hearing God speak, He will give us more than enough to write about.
You’ve got questions? I’ve got answers:
1. Do I have to have a blog to participate? Not necessarily, although it would help. Feel free to leave your “stirrings” in the comment section if you do not have a blog.
2. Am I required to post every week? I would never want this to become another task to accomplish. Share with us as often as you can and be sure to link back to my site when you do. The more the merrier I always say.
3. What is Mr. Linky? Mr Linky allows me to host all the links to the individuals participating each week, making it easier to find and read everyone’s posts.
4. So what do I do now? On Sunday’s I will post what’s been stirring in my life and add Mr Linky at the bottom. You write your stirrings on your blog and then add the permalink (not your main blog page) to my Mr Linky so we can find you. Be sure to visit the other links. You never know where you might be able to find or give much needed encouragement.
5. Do I have to post on Sunday? No. It’s the Sabbath afterall. You can write your post on any day, but I’ll have Mr Linky up on Sunday (maybe Saturday night) and then you can just cut and paste the link in to whichever day you posted.
6. Did I miss anything? Probably! If you have any questions, please email me and I’ll give a quick reply.
Now I’m off to come up with a logo of some kind and I still need to figure out how that Linky thingy works. I plan to have it up and running by next Sunday, so tune in to the Holy Spirit this week and share how He’s working in your life.

Can’t wait until next week! I went back and read all of my postings under my category Sunday Sermons today. It was so sweet to read how God was really beginning a work on me a couple of years ago and to see where He has brought me to now. Not as far as He would like, I’m sure. But further along that where I was then. Anyway, this is perfect! Can’t wait to read all the posts!
Count me in!
Count me in as well! This is such a good idea!
