In 2012 I:
Got engaged to my soulmate.
Got confirmed in the Episcopal Church two days later.
Went to China and had my life completely changed forever!
Interned for the second time for my favorite youth group in the whole wide world.
Landed my first big girl job as a children and youth minister because of said internship.
Made wonderful, precious new friends that I cherish.
Began working at a great church, with a great boss, and surrounded by a loving congregation.
Oh, and then somewhere along the way I gained 20 pounds. Woops.
In 2013 I:
Will lose that 20 pounds (plus 10 more).
Go back to school (in a week!) and graduate college this year with God's help.
God willing, marry my best friend.
Have many experiences that I have yet to know about.
Cherish the time I have with my family and friends.
Pray more.
Learn more about the God I serve.
Be a better example as a Christian and as a role model for young people.
Try to be more patient.
Love unconditionally.
2013...bring it on. God, walk with me during this next year and help me grow in you and for you. Keep my family and friends healthy and safe. Let me find the confidence and motivation to accomplish any and everything you lay before me. Help me to be a strong and effective leader. Show me your will for my life, and help me make important decisions in ways that will glorify you. Give favor and blessings to Lawrence as he finishes school with me and tries to find a good job that will help support us so that we may get married this year. Please, let this be a good year.
I am so hopeful for this year, and all that lays ahead. I am so THANKFUL for what has been in 2012. It was a life-shaping year, for sure. Thank you, Father. All honor and glory is to You, and You alone.
