21 DAYS Participant experiences
​(FEBRUARY 2019)

"I did the prayer of imagination, which I had done a few times in retreat settings earlier in my life but had never used repeatedly over a period of time, as I did daily the last 21 days.   It was an amazing refreshing of my felt connection to God in this season, and particularly to Jesus within the Trinity. I moved through stories in Mark, and many days received particular and specific encouragement or strengthening from the habit."   - M.H.
"I chose the Prayer of Rest, but after getting in to it I discovered that the Lord actually chose this for me for this time.

Two days in to it we had to go to the Washington DC area on a family emergency.  My mother-in-law had a
series of heart attacks and went in to hospice.  To intentionally focus on things to be grateful for each day
brought a lot of peace in the midst of the stress & grieving.  (After 2 days of rain, sunshine!  Robins covering
the lawn outside the window!  Buds on the shrubs!  The young woman who played her violin at mom's bedside.
Calm (mostly) family discussions.)    I would also remind my husband to find things to be grateful for each day
and it ministered to him.  I was so reassuring to us that God was there in the midst of everything!"  - E.E
​
*  It actually takes longer than 21 days to form a stable habit.  
However, the pattern that you begin to establish in a 21 DAYS challenge will set you on an excellent trajectory for authentic habit formation.
