Philippians 3:14 Fridays
Kate

As I mentioned here, I was thinking of starting a goal-themed meme.  Several of you have said you'd be interested in participating, so here it is!

This Friday, April 3, will be the first week of Philippians 3:14 Fridays!  Below is information about the meme and how to participate.  I hope you'll decide to join!  =)

What is Philippians 3:14 Fridays?
It's a weekly blog carnival, hosted each Friday here at Which Proverbs 14:1 Woman, in which we share our weekly or monthly goals.  Its purpose is twofold: encouragement and accountability.  Everyone is encouraged to visit other participants' blogs to see how they're doing, and to leave comments.

Why Philippians 3:14?
Philippians 3:14 says, "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."  I chose this verse for two reasons: First, it's about persevering toward achieving a goal!  Second, it's a reminder that what we do, we do for Christ.  We set goals for ourselves because we want to be more like Christ; we want to hear Him say, "Well done, good and faithful servant!"

How Do I Participate?
Simply post on your own blog each Friday about the goals you set for yourself.  They might be weekly or monthly goals, or anything you're trying to accomplish.  Write about your progress, tips and tricks your learning (for example, about getting organized), share pictures, whatever you'd like!

Then come on over here and put your info in the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of the current Philippians 3:14 Fridays post.

I'd like to ask that you do four things:
  1. Use your post's perma-link, and not your blog's main URL, in the Mr. Linky.  That way, others can easily find your post.
  2. Somewhere on your post, please link back to me at http://proverbs14-1.blogspot.com.
  3. You don't have to do this, but you're welcome to use the graphic you see at the top of this post.  If you'd like to use it, just right click on the image and save it to your computer.  Then you can use it in your own posts.
  4. Please leave a comment after signing the Mr. Linky.

What If I Don't Have a Blog?
That's okay!  Just leave a comment on my post about your goals instead of signing the Mr. Linky.

Do I Have to Type Out the Full Meme Name Each Time?!
Um, yeah, I guess "Philippians 3:14 Fridays" is a little long.  Maybe we can call it PhilFri?  Or...  I don't know.  I'm open to suggestions.  =)

Please email me if you have any questions or suggestions!  I'll probably update this post as needed, so I'm putting a link to it in my header.
