A New Year.

Well hello 2010! This is a time for a "new beginning". A new decade has come, and I am ready to take on whatever it brings, that being whatever the Lord wills.

First, as I reflect 2009, I am thankful for a great year! I worked in Montana for the summer and had a great first half of my junior year of college. I ablsolutely love CBU! I was a FOCUS leader, and truly enjoyed working with my partner and getting to know the freshman. I also had great roommates! I was able to spend more time with Hope, as well as get to know the other girls.

This was truly a great year, and the Lord definitely taught me many things. I have realized more and more the deep relationship Christ offers. It is a true friendship and love only possible through grace displayed in the cross. There is so much power in His name. I am so thankful to be known by Him.

This year is beginning with BIG changes. The biggest decision I have made lately is to move to Jupiter, FL (close to West Palm Beach), to live with family and continue with school. My hope is to be stripped from all I have and not be so set on my plan for everything. I know God is leading me here, and I am embracing His call. As I battle my desire to remain in control, I long for Him to have all of me completely, so all I am left with is Him. I know it will be challenging, but I think I am ready. And I know He will equip me with whatever I need. I am thankful for my family down there and can't wait to see what the Lord does.

As I move, I will be leaving lots of familiarity behind, especially with people i have invested in and sincerely love. They will be missed but I know our friendships go beyond distance.

I welcome 2010 with open arms.

Resolved, aim to glorify God in whatever and wherever He leads me.
