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.
So pleased you are doing good things for youself. Look forward to reading your blog. Know you can continue this effort, you sound very determined! Great going, girl. JF
