The Starting Point....

Here we are

closing out a year that has

held many crazy events.

From hurricanes and floods

to earthquakes and tornadoes.

There has been history made 

all around the globe

with the rise and fall of nations.

With the impending start of a new

year it feels like a chance to begin again.

I'm not a big proponent of the 

New Year's Resolution....

however, I think this year

I'll make one.

You see, this morning I was 

starting to type on a listing for my 

Etsy shop.

It was jibberish.

The letters didn't go together 

at all.

I had positioned my hands over by one 

letter from the correct 

starting point.

What a difference.

So, my resolution for the start of 

2012 is to begin at the right 

starting point.

I'd rather not have a year filled

with jibberish.

My goal will be to 

keep my eyes fixed upon Jesus.

Seeking His will for decisions 

I make.

To remember that those things that

I may think are wise are not

unless He opens the doors and 

leads me through.

One doesn't have to be far off 

the proper starting point

to create chaos....

but starting in Him....

and staying in Him....

will lead to the proper resolution.

This year may not be all fun and games.

But it will make a whole lot more

sense if 

we start in the right place.

Personally, 

I'd love tons of fun too.

Because that is just the kind of 

gal I tend to be.

Laughter and fun...

all the way!!

I'm wishing you a year that 

allows you to sigh in complete 

contentment one year from today.

For a year well lived.

Hugs.
