The Same Resolution

This is about the hundredth time (okay, maybe not quite the hundredth) that I've made it a New Years resolution to blog. I know a lot of really neat people who have blogs, and update them faithfully. Never before have I been able to start one and keep up with it. That is one of my many goals for 2010. I want a place to share my thoughts. With who, I'm not really sure yet. Hopefully, someone will find my little place in cyberspace, read what I have written, and maybe even benefit a little from it. I'm not looking to change the world or anything, but if something I put up on here happens to help someone, then the time I spend keeping it up will definitely be worth it. And if no one reads it, then I guess it just becomes a good way to vent. Either way, it's win-win.
Today starts my three week fast. My church is doing a corporate fast, to begin the new year. It was in the bulletin, and when I read a little about it, I decided it was something I wanted to do. I don't have to quit eating completely for 3 weeks (which is what a lot of people, including myself before I learned otherwise, think fasting is). For my fast, I am cutting out soda and sweets. I have three things I hope to gain from this; three spiritual goals. I'm not hoping that these goals will be completed by the end of the three weeks, but I am hoping that God will give me the guidance to begin accomplishing those goals.

Wish me luck in my blogging and my fasting. I'll post again the next time I have access to a computer. I don't have internet at home right now, so I'm not sure how frequent my posts will be, but my goal is 1 entry per week. That seems like a reasonable place to start.
