A New Year; A New Place


He must increase, but I must decrease. John 3:30

A lot has changed in me this past year of 2007. I have come to know a little more of who I am in Christ. I am learning, slowly learning, to let go of the things that are in my past. The things that have been beating me up for the last few decades of my life. I want 2008 to truly be a year of NEW BEGINNINGS. New friends, New stories, New discussions.........and what better way to start....than a new place to blog. Here, I can truly be ..... the NEW ME.

I am hoping that when I look back, at the end of next year, I will be able to see that I was consistently a work in progress. This year I want to be bolder in my walk with the Lord. I want to walk in my Christ Esteem and let go of my self esteem. I know I cannot make it here with out His Grace and His Love. I truly want to live a life that Glorifies the King of Kings.

"Lord Jesus, tomorrow is your Birthday. My gift to you is MYSELF. I know it is ragged and worn. I know that it has been beaten and has not really been taken care of. I know that even though it is not worth much to this world, it was bought at the most HIGHEST price. And it is all that I have to give. And the most amazing thing is, I know that it is all that you want. I am in awe of your love for me. You have shown me time and time and time and time again how truly precious I am in your eyes and I have not listened or been able to accept it. Father, today I give myself to you. I want to live in the purpose that you have for my life. I want to live as a servant....with a HEART to love the world . I want to see with clarity the things that you place in my path, Lord give me the wisdom to know which way to walk. Lord help me to see your footprints so that I can place my feet in them as I walk. Lord help me to hear the things that you want me to hear, give me discernment to know your voice when you speak. Father, please help build up my esteem in YOU so that I can be confident in my walk for your Kingdom. Father help me to remain humble but become STRONG in my drive for ETERNITY based goals. Lord bless my family and help them seek after you Lord. Lord let your love flow from me so powerful that they cannot help but feel you. Father, let my dreams align with your will. Lord, I pray for Less of ME and more of you....today and forever. "Never wanna be, Never wanna be livin' any less than all you want from me" I love you Daddy. These things I pray in your Precious name Jesus Christ~ Amen"
