Direction

I think last year here on my blog I mentioned that I don't make New Year Resolutions. But often around the end of the old year or some where within the first couple weeks of the new year I try to come up with some area in my life that I want to focus on the direction I'm going. Okay so it does sound a bit like a new year resolution. I just have to call it something different, in order to feel like I will succeed.

Last week on Christmas Eve, David and I sat down and made a list of things that we want to do this coming year.
1. Be debt free by the end of 2011
2. Make a trip to Oregon
3. Be involved in some type of Mission project
4. Be more in touch with neighbors, friends and family.....via personal visits, phone calls, or letters
5. Read, study and memorize the Bible more.

I added for myself: To eat healthy, exercise and loose 25lbs.

Week 1 December 27-January 2
* Have plans to go to the Ogden Rescue Mission in January to serve.
* Started eating healthy and exercising
* Working on memorizing Isaiah 61:1-4

I doubt I will give weekly updates......how about I strive for monthly updates.
Thanks for allowing me to use this as a form of accountability and self motivation.
