Just Another New Years Post

Happy New Year! I know I'm 18 days late but I've been trying to think of some profound way to launch this years blog. I got nothing so I decided instead to share with you a few goals I have and where I feel God is leading me this year. 

1. More patience- I don't know about you but being a wife and mom is hard so I need to check in with God regularly (like at least once a minute) to check myself. My motives, my frustrations... If my first response is I don't like it/want to do it/ want to hear it then there is a problem. My first response should be, how does God feel about this? That's going to take a lot of work and for me patience. Instead of jumping in I will have to ask and wait.

2. Commitment - If I can't keep my word to myself how are others supposed to trust me, here's the thing, as a wife and mom I often put myself last. I mean dead last. Someone always needs us or something  only we can provide. If I say I'm going to do something I'm going to do it, but I need to love and respect myself enough to keep my word to myself. 

3. Dedication - I live my life devoted to Christ and spreading the gospel. One platform I use is this blog. I will be dedicated and commit to posting at least once a week. 

What are your goals for 2014? Where do you see God taking you?
