I went back and read my New Years Resolution post, and boy am I falling flat. It's May, and I can't say I've achieved a single one of the well-intentioned resolutions. I think this is probably due in part to my lack of purpose in achieving them. It seems I believed that by wanting them I would do them (the inclination to make a list strikes again!). Not so, apparently.
Thankful today that His mercies are new every morning. And trusting Him to "establish my steps."
LOVE your authenticity! Most people would not a)publish their resolutions knowing they would fail at keeping them or b)announce that they have failed at keeping them! But in doing so, I KNOW you have encouraged the hearts of so many (mine included) who, just like you, are struggling to hear the voice of Jesus saying, "Well done" rather than hearing the many voices of condemnation that battle for our attention everyday! Thank you, friend, for putting yourself out there and letting us all know that the Gospel is bigger than us! :)
