one thing i've learned & continue to learn: this life is not mine own or about our version of the end result but joyfully & painfully about the transformation process

new year, new resolutions?!

or just stick w/ the old ones from 2010...

i'm not much of a fan of creating 5-yr/10-yr/2-yr plans or goals mainly because when i have the Lord laughs & reminds me that He's the planner. i do think setting goals can be beneficial so i'm not totally against starting the new year w/ resolutions i've just been reminded repeatedly over the past few years that it's all a matter of where i'm placing my trust: the Sovereign Lord or the plans/expectations/goals i create & expect Him to fulfill.

when i think of any new year's resolutions as the calendar turns into 2011, the main one that sticks out to me is actively pursuing any and all job opportunities/options He places/has already placed in my path. or as i said on new year's eve: "find/get a new job" (Lord willing & planned of course) i was challenged in the month of december with how i approach trusting vs obeying Him and i'm pretty sure that challenge didn't stop once the calendar changed from 2010.

so here's to resolving to continue w/ the challenges & goals of 2010 in a new year
