New Year = Resolutions

New Year means New Resolutions....

Have you made your resolutions yet??? I hope the year 2013 brings joy to all of you, my family and friends. I am so happy to see the END of 2012!!! I feel such a sense of relief tonight that I can finally say goodbye to this year and to all the pain it brought me. It has probably been the HARDEST year of my life. I am so ready to start 2013 and plan to make it the best of my life!!! I really believe that it will be and I am looking so forward to what it has in store for me and my boys. As for my resolutions....My first two come straight from the Bible and are very important to me....

1. No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead. Phil. 3:13

Why is forgetting so hard to do??? I have been working on this one for a while. As I begin this new year, I will stop focusing on things that happened in the past. I will start looking forward to what lies ahead!!!


2. Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act... Psalm 37:7

I will not try to rush God's plan. I will be still and know that God's timing is perfect and he has wonderful things in store for me and my boys. I just have to be patient and not worry about things I cannot control.

3. I will spend more time with my Heavenly Father. I will pray more, and I will read from his word more. I will find time daily to just be with him.

4. I will continue on my weight loss journey and be happy with my body. I will reach my goal weight. I will be in a single digit size jeans.

5. I will set myself free by letting go of any bitterness or anger I may feel. I will forgive anything I have not yet forgiven.

6. I will be a better mother, daughter, sister, and friend.

7. I will not be selfish.

8. I will be more compassionate.

9. I will be thankful for all the many blessings in my life.

10. These three kind of go hand in hand.... I will enjoy life. I will try something new. I will welcome new beginnings.

These are my resolutions. I hope that I can stick with them and make 2013 the BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE!!!!
