A couple days ago, Al Mohler compiled a list of the “Ten Most Newsworthy Events of 2009.”
His list is as follows:
- The Inauguration of Barack Obama as President of the United States
- The Uprising in Iran
- The Travail of the Global Economy
- The Death of Michael Jackson and the Nation’s Addiction to Celebrity
- The Rise of Twitter and the Growing Domination of Social Media
- The Battle over Health Care ReformThe Leftward March of Liberal Protestantism
- The Leftward March of Liberal Protestantism
- The Climate Summit in Copenhagen
- The Swine Flu Epidemic and the New International Hygiene
- The Spotlight on Private Scandals and Public Consequences
It’s an interesting list with insightful comments by Mohler.
But his list also got me to thinking in another area — what were the most (ten or less) most significant movements of God in my life last year? In what areas did I particularly see the hand of God in my life, moving and shaping me? What were the most profound lessons of God I learned in the past year? And how was I moved more towards the likeness of Christ through the Word of God in the past year? (This list may also give me some clues as to how I might order and direct my life for the coming year to be intentional in the process of sanctification.)
