The end of 2007 and begginning of 2008 have already brought me so many choices. If this is how 2008 is going to look I don't really want to live it. I made a New Years Resolution to read straight threw the New Testament and I started a little early. I started reading on the 26th of December and God totally gave me this awesome message to share at our 1st 1st Priority Meeting. I really liked it and had talked to my Nana about it. She liked it too. Anyways I got real excited about it and thanked God for it. I feel that 2008 is going to be GOD'S year and I think that 2008 was the year He wanted the 1st lesson or message to be written.
I was texting a friend January 1st and reading my EC when God changed the lesson. It was the same verse but a different spin on it. It killed me that He changed it write there on the spot but now I think it will have even more of an impact on the people that will recieve it.
Back to choices, I had to make so many choices in December of 2007 and the first 2 days of January that I never thought I would have to. I had my Christmas break planned and ready to go until I got a baby-sitting job. I had to baby-sit the 1st 2 weeks and then I was going to go on a ski trip the last week. Well that would mean no sleep at all on my break. So I couldn't not baby-sit so I decided to drop out of the ski trip. Well then my Gran called me and told me about this American Girl thing in Atlanta the last Friday of the break. I was ok with it until I found out that we have a basketball game Saturday that I wouldn't be here for(It's an important game).
So I decided to stay which leads me to the reason I'm writing.
I just got so frustrated with everything and it started making me mad that I was having to drop out of all these things. SO I changed my mind about my New Years Resolution to be getting closer to God and keeping in touch with him and making decisions based on what He wants for me. This year I will grow closer to God because I'm determined to live differently with out my comfort zone like I did most of last year. I just have to remember one thing
Psalm 62:7
"My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me."
