It has been FAR too long since I have posted something!  A New Year is upon us and with that come many changes....

New Years resolutions anyone?

My resolutions normally come in the form of something I am doing...that I want to do better. Health...parenting...loving...etc.
One thing I want to do is draw closer to the heart of God.

For those that know me...you can attest to the fact that control, and having it in my life, has always been a struggle. Let's just be REAL and say that I am slightly OCD ;) God has a way of wearing the rough edges off of us, and that's one he has been rubbing for a while! I am trying this year to trust Him right where I am at...believing in the life verse he gave me in junior high, and has repeatedly sent my way in crucial times ever since...

Jeremiah 29:11
11 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. "

So there it is...in amongst the other resolutions to NOT eat EVERY blessed sugary thing in my path!!
Tomorrow I will post about Fasting, and why this is a HUGE passion of mine...and how it is helping me to achieve that closeness I crave!!

  1. It was great to see your post this morning. We are a work in progress until the day God calls us home. I'm so thankful that His love, grace, and mercy are new everyday. We share the same life verse:) I'm so thankful for His promises. Hang in there Vincy, you inspire many of us because you can be real with us and we know we are not alone in our struggles. How awesome that we serve a mighty God!!! I look forward to reading another post soon.
    God bless!
