"But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun!" Isaiah 43:18-19

I don't want to choose one New Year's Resolution.

I am resolving to do many things this year. And I want to share them, and I want to be held to them.

Loving God, obeying him, even in the tough things.
Immediate confession when I know I have done wrong... instead of waiting around and avoiding. (Psalm 32)
Improved boundaries in relationships... say no when I mean no, and yes when I mean yes.
Learn to be 5 minutes early. All the time.
More communication of my emotions to trusted friends.
Establish a system of organization in my life-- at home, at work, in all things. A place for everything, and everything in its place.
Be more responsible with my finances... pay off credit card debt.
Being more intentional about my prayers, conversations, actions. Intentional listening.
Less of me, more of Him. John 3:30
Rely more on God's grace. He is El Shaddai, and I am so human. 2 Corinthians 12:9
