New Year

Another new year opens up in front of me.

My New Years Speculation: I think this year will be a year of many changes...There are many things to look forward to in this new year - I know a lot can happen in a year, but for the first time in a long time, I feel a bit of fear as I stand on the edge of this one.  My hope and confidence comes from the fact that my heavenly Father loves me and will not put me through more than I can handle.  But I'm prepared for a big year of being changed and challenged, crushed and chipped, molded and mended so that I might, every day, become more like Christ.

My New Years Aim: To take very seriously the call to live every single day in service to Christ.  To be selfless even when it feels like there's nothing left to give.  To give everything I can for the sake of the Gospel.

My New Years Struggle:  The need to be completely and utterly dependent on Christ and my relationship with Him and not get caught up in dependency on earthly relationships for contentment.

My New Years Verse:  Psalm 27:14 - Wait for the Lord.  Be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

My New Years Reality:  Wake up each morning and live in obedience to God and His Word and let Him lead and guide me.
