"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His love endures forever."
Sometimes I need a gentle reminder that HE is good. Sometimes I need a shove.
Either way, I'm learning to trust in the Lord and seek him first, not last.

2013 Goals and Resolutions
When I was a wee little one (ok, pretty much until last year) my parents made my brother and I sit down and write out our goals. Let me tell you... these were not ordinary new year's goals. My parents were goal task masters (If you're reading this mom, I'm just kidding). But seriously.
We had to set goals that were realistic, achievable, quantifiable, etc. etc. etc. AND we couldn't just write them out- they had to cover a broad range of categories. Spiritual, physical, emotional/social, and cognitive... I think.
When we were younger, I didn't mind it (probably because I was a chronic over-pleaser). My brother, on the other hand, HATED it. He would mumble off his goals like my parents were making him eat broccoli (they did that too us too).
Now that I'm older, I've made some goals and resolutions for the upcoming year. The funny thing is, they almost meet all the requirements my parents had... and I did it all on my own. Thanks, Mom and Dad, for your training and upbringing. :)
2013 Goals and Resolutions:
Create a Bible reading plan or find a study and do it consistently
Continue community group
Work out 3 times per week- cardio/strength training twice and yoga once
Meatless Monday (one day per week no meat)
Blog twice per month (at least)
Take more pictures AND upload/organize them
Craft more
Continue to check off movies from Best Picture Academy Awards list
Coming up in the next few weeks, I will let all two of my followers know what I have been up to, just in case they want to read about instead of just living it with me.
