Well, the new year is finally here. We knew it was coming but I don't think any of us thought it would get here so soon. I certainly didn't. There are so many things I didn't get done in 2008 and here it is 2009.
This past Sunday Pastor Mark spoke about 2009 being the year of dreams. Old dreams restored, dead dreams resurrected, and new dreams to be discovered. There are some dreams that I have that I have given up on. I won't necessarily mention them but they are there. I believe that God is resurrecting those dreams and I will not give up on them again. It may take my lifetime or even after I'm gone for them to happen but I believe they will.
Here are some goals I have for 2009 - Not my dreams but attainable none the less
- Serve God more fervantely
- Simplify my life
- Study my Bible more
- Add a specific prayer time
- Spend more time with family
- Write to my friends
- Eat healthy and exercise (hopefully I'll lose weight)
- Concentrate on my school work (which I should be doing right now)
- Set budget and stick to it
- Spend less and save more
- Pay off as much debt as possible
There was a quote I wrote down that I really like that Pastor said about faith.
"Faith is laying hold to nothing and holding on until the nothing turns to something."
What are your dreams? Your nothing? Don't give up on them. If they're from God then He will see that they come to pass.
Keep dreaming.

I like that quote too! Your Goals are very achievable! I was just looking at my vision board last night and realized that I have done a lot of what is on there! It is time to make another one. =) Have a blessed day!
