This year has already become the best by far. My Mom was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer in September which seemed to be the worst news I could've ever received, my heart was hurt, I feel like I lost myself in worrying about my Mom and my family, but just this week God had other plans. My Mom had a CT scan and got her results back and we were overjoyed to find out that there isn't anymore cancer. As I type this, I feel so much relief, and gratitude to most of all God our healer and provider and also to my Mother's doctors.
My faith was tremendously tested in 2015 in more ways than one, and I failed some of those tests, but God never left me. He stayed by my side, cheered me on, held my hand, and comforted me when I failed, but most importantly when I failed Him, he was still there and he picked me up, dusted me off and pushed me along my way. My love grows more and more for Him everyday, because despite who I am, He still loves me.
For the new year, I don't set resolutions, I set goals, and most of the time I conquer a few out of those goals....
so this year my goals are: grow closer to God, win someone to the Lord, eat healthier, start running again, hike the 6 hour trail at Bernheim, blog more about my historic adventures.
I am in pursuit of a more adventurous year, and a more satisfied soul.
Here is to a wonderful year!
Keep your hearts full, and surround yourselves with things and people that make you happy.
