It's All New... Again

2011. It does not seem possible that another year has slipped through my fingers. Another year of goals not met, dreams not fulfilled. I am still the same. I have not done what needs to be done to better my life and the life of my family. BUT there were victories. I went to school ON CAMPUS at DeSales. I mingled with the young 'uns and survived to tell about it. I did well, too. Dean's List with room to spare in my GPA. This is an important step in securing our family's future. And Dale has done well in school and I feel that I have done a lot to help him succeed by doing all the running with the kids, etc. But I can be a better wife and a better mother. I can be a better friend, sister, teacher, employee, etc. But first, I need to be a better child of God. I need to spend my time reacquainting myself with God and His ways. That is my focus for 2011, to become entralled with Him and His ways rather than my own. To learn to trust Him, which I have no reason not to, as He has always met our needs and surpassed every one of my expectations. Trust is my biggest issue and how can I trust anyone else before I learn to trust God? This year may be the most pivotal yet as I learn anew what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. I want to be a History Maker. I want to fulfill my destiny and achieve my purpose.


I will close with this:

History Maker
by Martin Smith

Is it true today that when people pray
Cloudless skies will break
Kings and queens will shake
Yes it's true and I believe it
I'm living for you

Is it true today that when people pray
We'll see dead men rise
And the blind set free
Yes it's true and I believe it
I'm living for you

I'm gonna be a history maker in this land
I'm gonna be a speaker of truth to all mankind
I'm gonna stand, I'm gonna run
Into your arms, into your arms again
Into your arms, into your arms again

Well it's true today that when people stand
With the fire of God, and the truth in hand
We'll see miracles, we'll see angels sing
We'll see broken hearts making history
Yes it's true and I believe it
We're living for you

I will be a History Maker. I will live for Him, in faith, worry free. My God has it in His hands.
