I can feel the eyes rolling even as I type. Yes, I realize that New Year’s Resolutions are often broken. The idea of making them has almost become a joke, but I think that–here comes another cliche’–this year will be different. 2009 was a pretty unbelievable year for me, in that I can’t believe that so many events could be crammed into twelve short months. I have graduated from college, gotten married, moved across the state completely on faith, and then moved back, also on faith. So when I woke up on January 1, 2010, I realized that for my family and I, this is the beginning of a new season. A new start. So, I think I would be remiss to not take advantage and resolve to do something with what God has given me. I have resolved to:
1. Lose five pounds by May 1st. To be honest my weight is okay, but when I look in the mirror, I don’t quite see what I want to see. Another motivation for this? I have to wear a bridesmaid’s dress on May 15!
2. Keep up with this blog! I started this thing because I needed an outlet for the stuff pinging around inside my head. I’ll try not to be too boring or crazy!
3. Read the Bible cover to cover by the end of the year.
That pretty much covers it. I’m really looking forward to this year with all the blessings and the teaching the Lord has for us. He has plenty in store for all of you too, and I pray that you will receive it and have a closer relationship with Him on the other side!
Love, Court
