It's a new year. Each year brings new things. It's a time for starting something new or just trying to refresh/restart the old normal things by spicing them up and trying different approaches on things. Many people make new years resolutions. I used to do that. I still kinda do I guess. I've never been good at keeping them though. I never make a big deal about it probably because I know that I'm not likely to keep them. I always say that I'll try to diet or loose weight or give up sodas or something along those lines. It usually lasts about a month then I give up and all goes out the window. They are always things that I know I need to do but I don't always have the want or excitement about doing them so it doesn't last.
This year I figure I can still attempt changing my eating habits but the real resolution/commitment I have made for 2012 is that I started January 1st is Read through the Bible in a year. I am using my bible app on my phone which is super handy and has the plan laid out for me for every day of the year. It even has an audio version that is awesome if i want to listen in the car or something.
I've never read through the entire Bible before so I am excited to accomplish this task. I'm excited to see what God shows me through His word. I'm excited to be spending 2012 learning more about Him! I'm excited! Did I mention that I'm excited? :)
I pray that God uses this experience to bring me even closer to Him and that through that He uses me to further His kingdom.
Please keep me in your prayers as I go on this journey. :)
