Another year has passed, a new one has begun! I love this time of year. Fresh start. New beginnings. I see hundreds of people bustling about making resolutions, trying to keep them, and showing the world they can do it.
Here's where I'm different. My resolutions are mine. I don't look to the world for approval. I don't need the worls to see my successes and failures. My resolutions are kept in my heart between me and God.
The gyms will be packed the next few weeks, then dwindle down. Diet plans will fly off the shelves. Self help bookshelves will be empty. Smoking cessation programs will be at their peak. I send positive notes to all those jumping on the resolution bandwagon.
God will give you all the desires of your heart when the time is right.
I used to jump on the resolution bandwagon, only to set myself up for failure. This year, I get off the bandwagon. God has a plan for me. I trust Him!
I will continue to be a homemaker. I will continue to submit to my husband. I will continue to minister to my family and others. I will continue to pursue my passions. I will continue all of this with God by my side.
I pray all of you have an amazing 2014. Pray harder, love deeper, smile more, and laugh longer.
God Bless and Keep Smilin'
