Greetings!

Last year seems like a dress rehearsal for what is yet to come. It wasn't that 2012 was particularly hard, but there were some challenges...some things I had to learn about myself. I learned a lot about what God expected from and for me. I am a unique creation...enabled to do great things. We all are. It's just hard sometimes believing that. At least it has been for me. I have learned the hard way that I have to allow the Holy Spirit to lead. I can't be the director, producer, actress, and audience in this show. I have to trust that since God knows my ending from my beginning, He knows which way is best for me, and I am finding that when I listen to Him, things are a lot less hectic.

Once I found my place in God, I realized that it is so much easier to accept who God has made me to be. I think I will always want to be better....to do better, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. I think we should all want to be the best we can be...we just can't let it be our focus. Our focus has to always be on God. When we take our eyes off Him, we lose our way.

Every year, I make a list of resolutions that I usually lose...and of course, if I can't find them, I can't do them. So, for 2013 I'm only making one resolution. This year, I will work diligently to keep my focus where it should be...on the Master. I love Him with all of my heart, and because I do...I want to please Him. Walking in the will of God pleases Him, and that is my ultimate goal. 

"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" (1 Cor. 2:9).

I am so excited about that!

Be blessed...
