I have to apologize, I have not been a faithful blogger. My life this year is going to change drastically. The year 2012 has opened my eyes to some difficult situations that I need to address. Here is a look at the year 2012. In March I started attending a new church. After a few months I became the new worship leader! I didn't see that one coming but gladly stepped up to the call my Lord and Savior had for me. In August I started my second semester in college and tried to take on a bigger work load. (I did not do well in school)
Like many others I asked myself questions like where am I going with my life? Is this really right for me? What is God's plan for my life? I worried about a job and stressed about school. My family wasn't top priority. As if that weren't enough I began to wonder where God was in it all. Although 2012 was filled with many difficult situations and worries but I made it through.
Here are the happy things: I ran my second half marathon, all by myself! I also ran two 5k races. I kept my New Years resolution not to eat fried food. No donuts, french fries or chips for me! I went sky diving for my 21st birthday! I took a class and became certified to conceal carry. I also voted for the United States President.
I look forward to 2013 and all that is to come. When I face trials and tribulations I will be ready because Jesus promises to never leave or forsake us. (Deuteronomy 31:6) He is always there and when it feels like He isn't, I bet you're the one who has strayed.
My resolution for 2013 is to read. I have never enjoyed reading but I know there is so much to learn. I have already read one book and have started my next one. I plan on reading one book a month and also read through the whole Bible.
Lord, prepare me for the new year. Challenge me, strengthen me and guide me through each and every step.
