A Year to Remember

More often then not people blog about things they've come across recently that have made them stop and think. This isn't going to be another one of those. I've more been contemplating what I want my 29th year of life, the last year in my 20's, to look like. I've come to realized that even though there have been times in my life that I've struggled with one thing or another I've learned lessons from everything I've been through and it's made me the strong woman that I am today. With that being said, life isn't about being perfect because God knows I'm far from that but I try my very best to live in a way that honors God, myself and those around me. 

Twenty nine is going to be a pivotal year for me. I want to make a difference. I want to be the best I can be and I want to never forget how I got where I am in the process of going. 


The definition of pivotal is: of crucial importance in relation to the development or success of something else.


I want to this next year of my life to determine the rest of my life. I'm not sure what God has in store for me through this year but I'm open to whatever he's got to show me. That being said I do have some personal goals I'd like to accomplish before December 7th 2014 ( The day I am no long in my 20's)


1) Do a half Marathon ( Scheduled for Jan 18th in CHS)

2) Polar Bear Plunge (Jan 1st 2014)
3) Go Sky Diving
4) Read through the entire bible
5) Co-lead a mission trip (Working on starting that process for Nicaragua in May 2014)
6) Know what is feels like to comfortably fit in a size 8
7) Get theWell (The college ministry that I'm interning for until May) involved in local outreach
8) Become a certified DULA
9) Be a successful leader/mentor to someone
10) Financially be able to bless others.

I think ten personal goals is a great place to start, I'm sure I'll be adding many more as the next 14 months go by. 


 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11


Here's to a great new year!!!
