Looking back this year has been better than 2009 in some ways but worst in others.. I am soooo ready for it to be over with!
Here is a recap of what I wrote about this past year:
To be honest, I really dislike the new year. Not only is it my birthday (and I don't like my birthday either..) but because I feel like this is the only time people make goals or start anew (myself included). I'm not much a new years resolution person, personally I feel like I'm making this bold statement of what I'm going to do on my birthday and that's a bit weird (try it sometime! lol). Plus I feel like if we are really going to change we have to make resolutions throughout the year not just the first day! With that being said I propose my goals for the year
I will...
- Step out in faith and speak the Word to myself daily that God is going to heal me physically, spiritually, and emotionally!
- Work on my spiritual issues (Read previous posts!)
- Speak scripture into my life. I have actually forgotten how powerful speaking the word is out loud and over myself. Am I foolish, or what??
- Health issues... lots of stuff going on or will be going on. This goes with the first one!
- Find a church home. I actually started this today. Went to a new church, not really my new home but got a good word on why God wants us to remember the bad times and why He wants us to be humble!
I am not saying that I will pray more or read my bible more or go to the gym more or this or that more! I will however be looking for opportunities to be filled more. I realized today as I was listening to a Joyce Meyers podcast that I am empty. And when I'm empty, I'm discouraged and when I'm discouraged, I'm depressed and when I'm depressed, I'm tired and angry and I give up. Problem solved: be filled! I will be looking for more opportunities to give and to bless. I will be looking towards the future and praying that what I feel in my spirit is actually the truth!
Did I actually accomplish these? Yes and no..
I did not step out in faith as much as I wanted, I guess that's just a progressive thing really... I did work on my spiritual issues, wish I could say I am done with them.. but I am no where close!! LOL At least I'm not at the beginning! :) Worked on my health.. didn't find a church home... but I did learn a lot about myself...
Maybe that's what this year was about.. learning all about me... and that's probably what this next year will be about too...
Tomorrow is my 23rd birthday. Not really a big deal, except everything I have learned and known about my life will completely change. Tomorrow I will no longer be a military dependent but will now become a civilian. Very scary, to be honest. I have regular health insurance, no military discount or ID anymore, I actually have to pay for medication and for doctor's as well as learn how to do everything on my own since I am on my own! lol
Not really looking forward to tomorrow.. I'm on call all weekend due to our criticalness of o negative blood. So I can be called in at any time so therefore I will not be partying like I intended to :( Okay I'm getting off before I start to either 1) cry or 2) complain or 3) both!! LOL
Happy New Year readers!! Here is to 2011!! :D
