New Year's Resolutions

Do you make New Year's Resolutions?

I do.

This year I've got a few goals I'd like to accomplish.

I've chosen my one word and am really looking forward to what I will learn with that experience. I've already learned quite a bit and it's not even 2010 yet!

Other resolutions / goals include:

1) Read through Bible - several of my friends are doing this with me and I'm very excited to go on this journey. Want to join me?

2) Train for (and run) 1/2 marathon - this one's going to be tough! I don't really enjoy running and so doing so for 13 miles sounds like anything but fun. Yet I have the desire to do something really challenging this year - something that takes determination and perseverance.

3) This one's a little more personal...I often feel burdened by material possessions. This year I want to be grateful for what I (we) have (not feel guilty about it) and then be prayerful and mindful about any and all new purchases. I feel a pull towards minimalism, yet the lure of materialism sucks me in!

What are your resolutions?
