Lets get started

Well I just took the Christmas tree down today.  I don't know if you are like me but, I like my Christmas tree.  Once it comes down it is a reminder the New Year  has definately started.  I made it through the first full week of work for 2010 and it started off wonderful and ended up very tiring.  Some how I think of the resolutions we are all suppose to be keeping.  We start off with a bang and then we are burnt out.  I feel for the ones who made resolutions with their food.  Can you imagine how hungry they are today?

Since we are on the subject of resolutions, I guess we can talk some more about mine.  I made the resolution to be a more faithful servant and to volunteer myself more.  Both of which I am doing.  Through my church I have been given contact information for a member who is a missionary in Nepal.  She is starting an orphanage and eventually will require quilts for the children.  I am so excited to be able to help supply the orphanage with as many quilts as I can whip up.  The orphanage itself is not built, that is probably a good thing, because I have yet to get started.  One of my other resolutions was about procrastinating, so far so good on that, because I don't want these kids to wait on me.

I hope your year, so far, has been encouraging and your resolutions are still in tact. Be mindful not only of yourself, but of others as well and I will leave you with this verse:

Be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. 1 Samuel 12:24
