As we enter a new year, I am greeted with many wonderful new horizons. This year I'm fulfilling a life long dream; starting my own blog. This year I turn 20. This year I'm giving my room a makeover. This year I'm gonna purpose to spend more time with the Lord in my devotions. This year will also bring many horizons I don't know about yet. Some may be joyous, some may be lovely, some may even be painful. We all have those years that just don't go as we hoped, dreamed, or even prayed. 2022 was that year for me and my family. My soon to be 15 year old sister was diagnosed with MALS (median arcuate ligament syndrome). She has been sick for some time now but was finally diagnosed with this condition. It is only fixed with surgery. There were many hard days, sad days, long nights, and unknowns in 2022. Thus, I'm entering this year with hopes that some things will be different. My sister will get the surgery she needs to finally be well again. My business will grow the way I've dreamed because I will finally have time to devote to it. Most importantly, that God's plan for my life will be made perfectly clear. Who will my future husband be? Will this year be the year I start a relationship with the man of my prayers? Will I get my dream car this year? Will my blog be successful? Some may be silly to you but, these are all things I ask myself as we enter the new year 2023. I hope and pray God will allow me to meet these goals.
I can't wait to share with y'all my reflections on life through this blog!
Thank you for being here!
I can totally relate to your article on giving my personal battles to God. I find it to be hard at times because the flesh tends to overcome and I forget to give it to God. I want this new year to be different to where I go to God first. I’m a saved Christian but at times I know I stumble and fall flat on my face. But I know that I can go to God to ask forgiveness. Thank you for sharing.
All our dreams are wonderful when the Lord fulfills them.... it's the waiting that's the hard part 🤍 great post!
