I've decided not to have any big resolutions for this year. It seems my resolutions always seem overwhelming by the 2nd week of January and in turn, I don't keep up with them and then feel like a failure for the next few months. So this year, I'm going with goals. If I meet my goals, great. If I don't, grace. Nobody's perfect.
*My first goal for this year is to read more. To kick things off, I'll be reading a book Matt got me for Christmas titled "Fierce Convictions: The Extraordinary Life of Hannah More - Poet, Reformer, Abolitionist" by Karen Swallow Prior,
I'm very excited about the prospect of reading more. Matt & I both have bookshelves in our offices filled to overflowing with wonderful books about Christ, music, history, hobbies, etc. I think it's time that I open them up and begin to absorb the knowledge they offer.
*My second goal for 2015 is to blog more. I started this blog back in 2010 and have severely neglected it, partly because I didn't make time for it and partly because I didn't think anyone ever read it. My outlook has since changed. I'm not writing to impress people with what I have to say because honestly, I don't have anything impressive to say. I'm writing it because I want to chronicle Matt & I's adventures over the year, record thoughts I may have, blessings that I'm given, Bible study notes, book reviews, and pictures of all the wonderful (and maybe even not so wonderful) things that I encounter over the year.
I hope that 2015 holds many, many blessings for everyone.
I hope that Christ is glorified above all else.
And I hope that this year we all draw closer to the King than we ever thought possible.
Blessings
