2011 was also filled with hope, new beginnings, new challenges, and new accomplishments. I began a new job as a fitness instructor and found that I really have a passion for the health and fitness world. I accomplished many challenges along the way to get to this point, thus proving to myself that I still have it in me to put my mind towards a goal, and work really hard to reach it.
My children continue to bless me with their smiles, hugs and kisses, endless energy, a love for others, a desire to learn, and a curiosity to try new adventures.
I have been reminded over and over through 2011 that through all of the pain, hurt, sin, and anger, that God is still next to me, wanting to help me through each and every day of my life.
For 2012, my hope is that I continue to lean on God for his strength through the rough months that may come. I pray that I will not turn towards being angry at a situation (which is so easy to do), but rather that I would embrace the challenge and know that my God is for me.
I am a strong believer that each day is what we make of it. So, I really pray that I am able to make the most of each day God has given me. To take care of my soul and my body. To exercise, to eat right, to pray, and to focus on what really matters at the end of the day. I pray that I can be thankful for what I have rather than constantly wanting more, be passionate in what I do and not take it for granted, and live in the moment instead of thinking about the future.
We were not put on this earth to worry about life, for this reason, I will work on not being full of fear but instead be full of hope and promise. Life was not promised to be easy, although, I plan to live each day to the fullest, work on not taking moments and things for granted, and loving those around me who I care for and cherish.
