Hard to believe that it is 2009. Wasn't it just last year that I was having trouble trying to get used to 2000. And a couple years before that it was the seventies. Anyways, time is passing us by. I have given up on New Years Resolutions because they too often end up being something else to feel bad about when I don't follow through.
That being said, a New Year brings a new beginning, a fresh start. I hope to develop a deeper relationship with my Jesus this year. I want Him to be the first thing I think about each morning and in everything I do. I want to show Jesus' love to all that I come in contact with. I hope that I can depend totally on HIM to that He can change my life, not be trying to change my life by my efforts or my abilities.
God has blessed me so tremendously with material blessings. I desire to develop into a better steward of what I have to use and seek spiritual blessings more. In the past I have often wished for others to change and do better, thinking that I have the answers or know what is "right". Right is only an idea. I now believe that my relationship with Jesus is what makes me righteous. It is not a belief that I buy into nor is it a group that I can join, it is foremost and only a relationship that I hope becomes more intimate each day of 2009.
