My friend Danielle also created a blog to embark on her new adventure and love for God, so if anyone actually ends up reading this I'm following her. So, yeah. :]
I wish that my first day of blogging for the year was interesting and had depth, but I can almost promise it won't. I stayed up until 6 this morning with Barbra watching a tv show on the History channel about gluttony and played Sims 2 which is amazingly fun. :] We passed out around 6 and I ended up waking up around 1. I left her house by 2:30 and got home. And wen't back to sleep, lol. I slept til 7 and then just sat around watching tv until 10:30. So, obviously my day was very boring... but I do have things to talk about, I mean, Its New Years Day!
A big part of me isn't looking forward to this year because every year has been the same for me. They all have pretty much sucked and just because it's a 'new year' not much changes. I still have to go back to school and to the same semester/classes. But this year seems different for me in many ways, for one I am following God and am much happier. I feel blessed for my life and want to follow God the best I can. I know that this year will be different because I plan on changing lives, I really and truly do. But I guess for this year to be different I must have plans and goals, because I never have before. So, my new years resolution will consume of multiple things:
1. Stay, follow, and strengthen my relationship with God.
2. Strengthen my relationships with other Christians.
3. Enjoy life.
4. Get good grades for my second semester of sophomore year.
5. Get good grades for my first semester of junior year.
6. Become a Jr. Counselor for Camp Happy Days.
7. Continue reading the bible daily and talking to God.
8. Help those around me to come to God.
9. Let others see the difference in me through God.
10. Learn not only how to love God but myself and those around me.
So, those are some of my plans for the new year. I'm really excited to get things started.
Last night when I was out with some of my friends I realized the language around those I hangout with use, I never noticed how much cursing went on, lol, but now that I'm trying to work on myself I notice it a lot.
Also last night I noticed my strengths and weaknesses.
Strengths:
1. I would never be tempted by Alcohol or Drugs.
2. I won't denounce God, even if others around me will.
Weaknesses:
1. My friends making fun of my new choice in friends.
2. The worlds quite enticing. And the thought of living completely free of responsibilities and life obligations sound nice.
1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
2 The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.' "
4 "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
I'm sorry my blog sucked so much today, but its in the middle of the night and I'm not putting two and two together. I'm sure they will become a lot more interesting monday, once I get back to school and a normal sleeping schedule and life. :] Thank you if you read. :]
