What is your New Year's Resolution?

Ok, pretend it's December 31st, 2009; You're reflecting back on the last twelve months and how much you've accomplished. So take a few minutes and just think about some things you would want to fill in the blanks with as you pretend. It doesn't have to entirely be spiritual but I hope your most earnest goals are spiritual. How well or how poorly you perform this year is completely and solely up to you. Paul tells us, "If you sow sparingly you will reap sparingly, and if you sow bountifully you will reap bountifully." Make everyday count!

You can give us some of your goals if you like.

As I look at the last year, I see that God has done some major healing in my life. It has been a slow process and still continues to be a process. My goals for this year are to really develop more time in the word and in prayer, and have godly relationships with family members, friends, and another special individual! As Missy said in her note, I want to MATURE!

As far as wordly goals, I really need to get my finances and spending in order. I would love to learn alot this year, whether that be in the Word, books or in school in general. I want to start back to school and possibly be in the position to purchase a house by the end of the year. I want to grow so close to God that this world is just a blessing to be used in. Small goals for such a Huge God :)

This is belated. Ha.

I don't really support the idea of new years resolutions, but I wholeheartedly agree with setting goals. It doesn't have to be based on a new year, in my opinion.

I have come a long way from where I was only two years prior. God has really done some... we'll go with miraculous works in me.

I don't doubt I still have plenty of growth and development to come. I want to learn and grow. I want to develop a stronger and deeper relationship with my heavenly Father and Savior.

My goals this year are to learn from the mistakes of the former year and years. I want to make it a point to ground myself in the Word and in the church. I want to strengthen my prayer life.

Miscellaneous goals cover your basic financial basis. I want to make a strong impact. This impact can be on one individual's life if that be God's perfect will.

These goals cover a multitude of years.
