Okay so I sat down late last night and prayed about what I thought I should do with this year what changes I want to make on myself and on others. I would have to say Carrie you are amazing and I hope you don’t mind me stealing one of your ideas. She had said she thinks of a word for the year. My word would be growth. I want to grow in all areas of my life. Spiritually, Mentally, Physically, ect. So now my goals.
1. I want to get straight A’s and B’s. I have been pretty good about this so far but I don’t want to half way through the year just slack off.
2. I want to get into college. I really want to go to Liberty. I hope I make it in with flying colors and receive as many grants and scholarships as possible.
3. I want to get my liscence. I want to be able to drive. I know I’m 17 and I don’t really know how to but it has been a hard time for my family and they havn’t had time to teach me or the money to have someone else do it for them.
4. I want to learn to cook better. I have been known as a horrible cook but I want to turn that around I really want to learn.
5. I want to get in shape. I can’t wait till spring when I get to play soccer but I really want to start going to the gym and really just get in shape.
6. I want to save money this year for college and for a car.
7. I want a prayer filled life. I want one where I can’t make any thing happen without coming to the Father first.
8. I want to trust God at all times. I need to really push myself to understand he is in control and I need to not worry.
9. I want to write to my future beloved every night. Kelly Hall you are amazing. She gave me this idea and I have been doing it for a while but not as much as I should.
10. I want to continue to work with young girls no matter what. No matter if I move or I have alot to do already I want to see to it that I work for God and teach them.
11. I want to read more books this year. I really want to read Starving Jesus, Un Christian, Secret of the Lord, and more.
12. I want to have a better more positive additude. I use to be really good about haveing a positive additude. However this year I have been negative in areas of my life and I want to see that disapear.
13. I want to bless more people. Ask no questions just obey what the Holy Spirit tells me to and love others through my actions.
14. I want to worship the Fahter daily. I have a hard time doing that this year. I am taking all my classes at High School and a bunch of college classes after that. It is hard finding the time and energy to do this but I really want to.
15. Find a church I can plug myself into.
Well that is what I am striving for. I got some really nice gifts today. I got a How to survive college book and a gift card to Target. I hope that I get to hang out with ,one of my best friends and role model, Kelly tomorrow. Well have a great New Year.
