Happy New Year
We are back from our annual Christmas trip to Breckenridge to ski. As usual, it is hard coming home. It is our "happy" place, and I am so sad every time I have to leave. I will post pics from our trip when I get caught up!
In the spirit of the New Year, I want to share something.
Proverbs 4:25-27
"Look straight ahead and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; then stick to the path and stay safe. Don't get side tracked, keep your feet from evil."
I think as we enter the New Year, we all have goals and consider it a clean slate - a new start. My personal resolution this year is to take my decisions to God. I have to remember, no matter how much control I think I have, I am not in charge! I think, only with His help, can we keep a straight path. We all face decisions, forks in the road. I think we make things more complicated than they are. In my quiet time with God, I am trying harder to listen for guidance and stick to the straight path He has laid out for me. I am also reminded that so many trivial things make our paths crooked. We have so many blessings, and so much good in our lives, and we need to fix our eyes on Jesus as so not to get distracted.
I pray for all of you to have a blessed, happy New Year. Each day we get a new chance, a new opportunity at life. Take advantage of it. Life is precious and short, and only with His guidance can we live a fulfilled life.
