January……
Doesn’t it make you excited? I always love this month. I love it for many reasons, mainly because it is my birthday month. Have I told you how much I love birthdays. Celebrations of any sorts. It does not have to be about me. I just love it!
You know it is never too late to plan your reading list for the year. Here is mine so far.
Ungifted by Scott Barry Kaufman
Chivalry by Zach Hunter
The Creative Family by Amanda Blake Soul
The Practical Guide to Patchwork by Elizabeth Hartman
Speak love by Annie F. Downs–You can get the kindle edition now for 2.99. I have started this one. Our words are so powerful. I am reading this one because I will one day have a teenager. I think all teenagers and moms of girls should read this one. Ok…maybe women period.
A million little ways by Emily P. Freeman
Bread and Wine by Shauna Niequest
It is never too late to decide what dreams you are going to work toward this year.
Our family is praying that our house sells. We are also praying for the house, community, school, and neighborhood that we are going to be in soon.
Passion City Church (our church) has a vision statement “that we may”
You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a Holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness and into his marvelous light. For you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God. You once had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 1 Peter 2:9-10
Our family has embraced this as well.
That we may
be a family that loves each other
that is generous to others.
That loves others because He first loved us.
That walks in truth and not in fear.
That shows grace and mercy like He shows grace and mercy.
That we may.
It is never to late to decide that you are going to love your husband more than ever.
I’m going to hug him like I mean it.
kiss him every chance I get.
pray for him daily
put him first before our children (kids need to be reminded they aren’t the center of the universe. A child centered universe is a recipe for disaster in any marriage)
Speak Love and encouragement over him daily.
It is never too late to pray for guidance over decisions you will make this coming year.
-Here are just a few of ours…..
Adoption-When? Where?
School-What district?
Buying the right home?
Parenting
What are you dreaming up this year? What are you praying about? What are you wanting to accomplish this coming year. Don’t forget-It is never too late.
