(Almost)
2010
Its been a bittersweet year for me filled with smiles, tears, loneliness and love. I think the best thing to do before the new year starts and resolutions are made and broken it is best to look back and count your blessings.
To name them one by one.
In May after much prayer and waiting I was able to take Believers Baptism along with the rest of my family, I joined an amazing church, made new friendships and built up older ones, started to learn what my calling is, was able to teach VBS over the summer, became part of the youth leadership team, and through what seemed like my lowest point was able to rewrite my thoughts and become a better person.
Really though there are too many blessings to count and just as 2009 ended with awe and joy 2010 does as well.
“This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” - Isaiah 43:16, 18-19
This is my verse for the new year. There is no turning back as we run this race but we continue to press on toward the goal. I pray that this new year bring each of you a new heart after God and after his people.
& think hard about your new years resolutions, don't set yourself up for a fall but push yourself as well :)
