It’s the first day of 2012! This morning in church the pastor spoke about gratitude. He gave several examples of people in the bible that had gone through good and bad times and had all arrived at a place in their lives where they were incredibly blessed and were probably saying “Who am I Lord that you would bless me this way?”
Who am I that God would bless me so? I continually fail Him but He loves me anyway. I see the way He cared for me in 2011 and I pray that I will acknowledge His handiwork in my life in 2012.
I always say that I am not going to make resolutions but I do make them, in my head. I just don’t like to say them out loud or put them on paper (or blog) because then there is an accountability there. And who likes accountability?
So here goes…my 2012 New Year’s Resolutions…
1) Read 12 books of the Bible from start to finish.
2) Exercise and lose weight.
3) Blog. Every day. 365 post for 2012.
My motivations…
1) To understand God’s truth.
2) To feel better physically and have all those nice clothes in my closet fit again.
3) To have all those memories written down.
I am pretty excited to see where God takes me this year.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3: 5&6
