My December Resolution

  I have been meaning to post this all month but, well, somehow the month is almost gone and I am just now getting to it!  I really don’t think I like how fast time is flying by these days.   The last part of November I, through a variety of circumstances, felt led to make some changes.  As I may have mentioned a time or two  ;o), the last 2+ years have been really difficult.  During these hard times I had gradually allowed myself to become more and more overwhelmed with the negative, to the point that I no longer could see God’s kindness and love for me. All I could see, truthfully all I looked for, was the negative and it was threatening to consume me.  So, at the beginning of December, I decided to make a point to daily look for evidence of God’s love and kindness towards me and share them with my e-mail group (I have a group of ladies that I e-mail with as a Bible reading accountability group, it has been amazing for me!).  I can’t say that life has been any easier since starting this exercise, but I can say that it has changed my perspective and has helped my attitude. I am once again able to see and remember that God loves me. The bad no longer seems quite as overwhelming and I no longer feel forgotten……  My only regret with this is that I haven’t written it down in one spot. Maybe my New Years resolution should be to start an actual journal just for these things. :o)
