A Whole Lot of Taggin' Going On!!!!

I woke up this morning to an inbox full of tags that had circumvented the globe overnight. Thankfully someone tagged me cause I really like this one..... and I'd really hate to be left out.

I've been tagged by Michelle to participate in the Six Word Memoir meme:

{a faithful servant marked by joy}
The Lord gave me this two years ago. It's written on a little piece of yellow paper in my journal - just six little words. It tells me who I am and how I have been created.
I tag......
1. Write the title to your own memoir using 6 words.
2. Post it on your blog.
3. Link to the person that tagged you.
4. Tag five more blogs.

This meme has been running around the circles in which I blog, and has reveaaled very interesting things. I might actually participate for once. Interesting reaction.

Jenny - I'm sorry there is not very much of an explanation.

My take on it is that we write in 6 words what we would say about ourselves as a memoir. It makes you take a look at yourself and sum up who you really think you are or what you are about.

If you want to play, try checking out a few of the others that are going around to see what they have done with it.

Nate - You mean you haven't been tagged yet??!! I was sure you had been so I officially tag you. I would really like to see what you come up with.

Six Words!!!!

6 Words!!!!

…and I’m tagged!!!

What am I going to do?

A “Six Word Memoir meme”….This will undoubtedly be the most difficult tag/meme I will have ever endeavoured to complete!!

I love your 6 words! You are so good at expressing so much in such a concise way!

I have trouble keeping my article titles down to 6 words!!!

This will be a good thing for me to try and accomplish!

Thanks,

L

Take a deep breath LS - you can do it!

I really can't take credit for mine. Someone else gave it to me when they were praying for me. I have cherished it because it's a blessing from the Lord and since it just happens to be six words I thought it was fitting.

:-) I hear the joy ... thanks for leaving a joyful message at my place.

Ruth, that is a VERY cool memoir title. And how sweet that it was a gift to you! That makes it all the more special.

I have a little "altar" of sorts in my room, on which I keep all of my super-special things... and one of the permanent residents is a sheet of paper from 1995 on which a bunch of my friends all wrote a note saying what they saw God doing in me. Another thing is a birthday card from a good friend in which he had written, "God does have a plan for your life, Happy - and it is greater than your dreams." I think he just scrawled it; i doubt he knew how much i would treasure those words. It's so sweet the way God works in moments like that.

I'm glad you have a few of your own; thank you for sharing this one with us. :)
