Happy New Year!

I know I'm a little late on wishing everyone a Happy New Year, but still better late than never! I pray this year brings you joy, peace, and a renewed urge to dive deeper in with God. The beginning of a new year always brings us to contemplate what our new year's resolutions will be. As for myself, I am constantly saying, this year... I will DEFINITELY keep my resolution. It lasts maybe a couple weeks if I'm really determined. Read more of the Bible, spend more time in prayer, devotions everyday... cook more at home, live healthier, go to the gym more... all good intentions, things we should already be doing, but hard to keep. Why?? I have heard that making broad claims makes a resolution hard to keep. Try being more specific and tackling one thing at a time. Want to spend more time in prayer?? Commit to 10 minutes a day... and specify a time, whatever works for you: morning, evenings, night... get up a little earlier, stay up a little later. Whatever you need to do... keep that commitment. Soon it will be part of your daily life... and you'll be craving for more time. =)
My resolution for 2012???? Well let's just say that maybe by the end of this year I will be able to share it with you =) Basically Josh and I would like to become better stewards of our money. That getting under control will help many other things fall into place!! =)
