I have been overwhelmed lately with such a sense of gratitude for my family and yet an overwhelming sense of sorrow for those less fortunate than I. Despite all the craziness or arguing that may come from the holidays, I still have a family that I LOVE to be with. They are my friends and my constant companions. I don’t think I realized that until after I got married and moved away. I miss them more than I ever thought possible. How many people out there can say that? I am so blessed.
Lord, help me to fully understand the great gift you have given me in my family. Help me to be equipped to reach out to those less fortunate and those without the family support that you have so generously blessed me with.
How is it already December? Time seemingly keeps getting faster and faster. It’s definitely a bittersweet speed up. Part of me wishes that I could go back and enjoy even more of what I was doing and where I was at. Another part of me is SO excited for the coming changes. There is so much to look forward to and get excited about.
When I joined Mary Kay back in September, it was definitely a needed lifestyle change: shifting my thinking towards the positive instead of the negative, putting real, attainable goals in front of me, getting back into a more disciplined lifestyle. All these have been so refreshing after the period of dryness I went through this summer.
Life is full of possibilities and dreams. What are your dreams and measurable goals for the next week? The next month? The next 3 months? Where do you want to be in a year? What do you need to do to get there? I challenge you to dream with me and grow with me.
