Goodbye 2008
This is my final post of 2008!
As I close out this year, I am most thankful for my family. As many of you know, my father in law has been in the hospital for most of December. He really gave us a scare. I praise God for answered prayers and am hopeful that he will be home with us soon to finish his recovery. I am thankful for my husband and am thankful that God brought us together. We’ve had a tough month and I would appreciate your continued prayers for our family. I am grateful for our kids and my parents and all of our extended family and friends.
I am thankful that my friend Garry is recovering and doing so well! I am thankful for my dear friend Elisa who has been a great support to me this month. I am thankful for my husband’s business and my own. I am thankful for the lovely home God has given us that is almost completely unpacked now. (I still have a few boxes I need to deal with)
I am thankful that God has allowed a broken down, failure ridden girl, to be part of a seminar that helps make others stronger. I am thankful that God hasn’t given up on me and that I am a work in progress. I am thankful that my failures do not define me and that God made a way to turn bad into good, wrong into right.
Next week, I will post an entry about goals. Be thinking about the areas of your life that you want grow. These are the 5 areas that I set goals in: spiritual life, health and fitness family, work and emotional /personal growth? What are the critical changes you need to make? Goals must be defined specifically and measureable. Not lofty and large. I’m already working on mine (including those boxes). Start jotting yours down.
I love this holiday! Chapter 2009 is about to begin!
I thank you all for reading!
Dana
