As I prepare to bring in the 2011 New Year, I can't help looking back at the year 2010. I am so appreciative for the beautiful people in my life. From the childhood friend (that I attended pre-school with) having lunch with me this week; to the college friend (and sorority sister) that crashed at my home for a few days; to the elderly friend that I made while buying items from the drug store. He couldn't help but share how blessed he was to have his wife for 52 years and isn't sure if he can make it without her...I could go on and on about how important my network of friends is to me. I love you all and I am so blessed to have each of you in my life!
(not going to cry)
I can't explain the type of excitement I'm feeling right now, but I like it. I am thankful for the confidence (not arrogance) that God is allowing me to experience, and I will continue to pray for a still and quiet strength into and beyond 2011. I will continue to pray for those around me (near and far).
(crying-happy tears)
We all have so much to be thankful for. As you reflect and anticipate remain thankful, and join me in growing in the following areas:
Patience
Consistency
Giving
Completion
Can you think of more? Add them...
and...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
