New Year's Resolutions

I don't do New Year's resolutions but this year I have just one. I am going to trust God more than I ever have. I have been a believer all of my life, however, every once in awhile I feel like saying "It's ok, God, I got this one." I should know by now that the way to make God laugh is to tell him your plans. He has way better plans for us than we can imagine and he has proved that to me in the last couple of years. He has blessed me with a relationship that I thought only existed in my dreams. I have met someone who is amazing and my true partner for life. God has put us into a house that we love and has now blessed us with a baby girl on the way. Although these are things I've always dreamt of, I never thought that they would all be possible, let alone all in the same year.

There are many life changes, decisions, and very complicated situations awaiting us in 2013 but I know that with God everything will be ok. He doesn't promise that the ride will be easy, but He does promise it will be worth it. My daily verse yesterday was "What is impossible with man is possible with God " Luke18:27 I am going to believe in this verse with all of my heart this year and have a relationship with him like I haven't had before... a closer one. I am going to try to love like him, forgive like him, and set an example like him. It won't be easy, sometimes it won't be possible, but I can try. So here is to 2013... a year of small moments and big changes.


Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the Lord our God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
