I know the world has all the "2016 of Doom" posts... and everyone is just hoping things get better this year... But I have to say... 2016 was amazing! I had a couple New Years Resolutions last year...
1. Seek Perfection
2. Soar4Him
1. Seek Perfection
2. Soar4Him
1. Goodness knows I'm not perfect yet... but this year I've been learning much more about what perfection means... and so much more about the only Being who knows true perfection. It's been an interesting journey... one I fully intend to continue. Goal... to Keep Seeking Perfection...
2. This one was sooooo awesome! anyone who's been keeping tabs on me over the years knows I tend to dream big, and I have many life goals, from opening the next wit's end, to traveling the country in a tiny house with a rock wall, and all my other crazy plans, (that yes... I fully still intend to work on ;)still just working on the details) well this year I decided to stop focusing on the end game, and start working on the journey... You know Jesus didn't start His ministry till He was 30... I still got some time... (Even if I reach 30... Jesus died at 33... soooo.... If I get started 3yrs before I die... I'm still on time ;) ) But God's been taking me for quite the ride this year... (Though I'm not sure who's fault it is that I'm so busy... His, or mine... probably a bit of both...) I've got a fullish time job looking after 96 donkeys, 4 cats, & 2 goats... I've got a Youth group thats started small and disorganized but is growing into a thriving group of young people ready to learn more and serve God.... I've got a training program from FAST ministries that we're starting group 2 on! I'm learning more about being an Area Coordinator for Pathfinders, kinda sorta trying to work on my Master Guide, and I get to help with the Pathfinder club in town every couple weeks! I'm soaring alright! soaring on cloud 9, and I know there's no way I can be doing this without His help. It's so incredible how making a commitment to Soar for Christ, He takes you so much Higher then you ever knew you could be. Especially for a such a short time frame as I've been flying... Seems like only yesterday it was January and I was struggling to figure things out, feeling like gravity was holding me so tight... looking forward and wishing I could just get off the ground... Now it's January again and I'm not going to lie... some days I don't remember what being held back even means!!!
New Years Goal 2017: Keep Soaring for Him.

I know I should take this "New Year" as a chance to make "New Goals" but goodness gracious I'm not ready to start "New" I've just gotten going!
