2013

It's JANUARY 2013 & a NEW year

I thought I'd share some of the resolutions I made this year. Im sure many of the 'new years resolutions' are broken & forgotten by February but I believe this year I am at one of the best places in life I've been, and all the glory goes to the Lord. I like that it's the beginning of the new year ! New slate , New things are going to happen! Good things! (like getting my taxes) yippie!!! Lol . I'm excited to set new goals and to see God work in my life. My husband and I took part in a 21 day Daniel fast to start the new year off right & boy has it been tuff and the temptation to eat all the wrong foods (& i work at a sports grill where servers are constantly passing by with delicious smelling food- ultimate torture)but it's all about the sacrifice, Jesus sacrificed his life for us , God sacrificed his own son- amazing isnt it?!! Well we can sacrifice these 21 days! And the outcome so far has been wonderful , we are feeling Gods presence so strongly and growing closer to him everyday.

•So my resolutions are
1) Grow closer to the Lord (I want to read my BIBLE more , I read my devotional every morning and the bible but I want to dig in more and spend more time meditating in the bible
2) Loose the rest of my baby weight & fit back in my jeans (on my way there about 6 more pounds) I guess that means I should work out huh!? Ugh just tuff to find time with 2 little ones.
3) Journal about my life& my kids growing so I can look back (blog)
4) Get a better paying Job
5) Share my faith more
6) Less time on social media (I can just hear my husband shouting AMEN lol) I want to concentrate on my kids when they are awake not on my phone and when my husband gets home from work put my phone away not be surfing through the web, texting my girlfriends or checking Facebook. He sure is a hard worker going to work for 10-11 hours a day so when he gets home I wanna try to cater and give him all my attention

I am BELIEVING and have faith that the best is yet to come, ALOT happened last year I got married ,Inherited a new family (& boy did i get lucky with awesome in laws) moved out of my comfort zone , gave birth to my precious Sophia! Lost & got a new job, got a new 2012 car with my husband , switched churches & a whole lot more. So much changed but they all are wonderful changes.&& I am believing and thanking God in advance for healing & salvation for my family & friends

Whatever you're facing in life or whatever is coming in your future, God has already given you the faith for it. It may not look like it , and you may not feel like you have what it takes to overcome but faith in God isn't based on our circumstances or how we will - Joyce Meyer


Until next time
Be Blessed
