New Year, New beginnings!

I love New Year's day because it reminds me that I have new beginnings. I am grateful for all the blessings we received this year and looking forward to what's in store for us next year. 

Every new year, I fill out my personal goals and planning worksheet which was given to me by a friend  (I wish I can share them with you but I have to ask for permission first). I usually write my life goal which is to know and love Jesus more and to make Him known. I also write the things I am believing God for this coming year. My prayers were answered in 2012. I prayed that God blesses us with a house and a baby. I got pregnant before May and bought our first house in May. Unfortunately, I had a miscarriage but I am still thankful. "The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.” Job 1:21
This picture of our house was taken when we were just moving in.

For 2013, I will continue to ask God to bless us with a child. While I am waiting, I will keep myself busy in striving to be a better wife. I will be sharing with everyone my adventures this year. I will also try thank God daily for all the blessings He gives. This is my purpose for starting this blog. It is going to be more of a journal so please try not to judge. ;)

Sweet Jesus, thank you for answering one of my prayers this year which is to be reconciled to my friend who I hurt because of my immaturity 10 years ago. You are, indeed, my Redeemer and Restorer. Thank you for giving us the chance to renew our friendship.
