welcome to another year...

i remember when i thought my cousins and friends were old @ 27... and here we are now - in 2008, when a lot of us will be turning 27. time flies!

the Lord grew me a lot in 2007, and i expect that to continue to happen this year and in years to come for there is so much to learn.

after all, sanctification is an un-ending process while we are still here on earth.

i'm blessed beyond measure - a sinner deserving nothing more than eternal condemnation; separated from a holy and righteous God by that sin; saved by Christ's blood and living by grace through faith.

standing in awe and rejoicing in the future :)

any resolutions? nah, i stopped making them awhile ago since i never keep them anyway... just a desire to continue to grow in Christ, to read the Word and pray daily.

a passion for full-time ministry in some fashion has ignited... where shall that lead?!

thank you for the tears, laughter, joy and sorrow - losing focus and stumbling is expected, and grace abounds evermore. wow.

psalm 103:1-5
"bless the LORD, o my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name. bless the LORD, o my soul, and forget none of His benefits; who pardons all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases; who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; who satisfies your years with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle."
