Off to a great start

The title is only half sarcastic.


I'm off running in this new year. Things have already challenged me to get closer to God or to run from Him. I chose to go to Him. It's been wonderful so far.

Only last night I wanted to start the year over because I thought it was terrible.




This morning, I want to keep going.




I wanted to get closer to God this year than ever before. I talked to Him about it and asked Him to help me do that. He has already answered my prayer. Even though life is getting harder, I'm feeling better.




And I'm off to a running start. By God's grace, I hope I can keep running. Because a year is a long time to be running.

This is a great way to start a new year.

Changes

This is what I wanted to change about my life/myself six months ago. Compare to now.

I wanna...

Know God better than I've ever known Him.
Love God more deeply than I've ever loved Him.

Be a servant.
Be more content.
Be encouraging to others.
Be a peacemaker.
Go riding more!!! (Hee-hee)
