A New Year, A New Chapter.

Well, another year has come and gone, and let me tell you, boy am I glad 2011 is gone!
2011 was good to me, I mean I had my ups and downs, as most of you would know from previous posts, but I am super excited for 2012.

I had some great times in 2011 that I am super thankful for, and constantly Praise God for. I mean I went on my first Missions trip to Haiti, and I met some amazing people! I saw God do some amazing things through me and in me while I was in Haiti and it has definitely changed me. I started my second year in University, and started my job as an RA. I love my job as an RA, but I definitely had my challenges.

My faith was tested to the limit, and I still don't completely know how I did, but I guess I will never know eh? hah. I saw God work in many amazing ways throughout the past year. I overcame a lot of things, and began to overcome other things. I was faced with many "adult" decisions within the past couple of months, and let me tell you, making those "adult" decisions weren't always fun, nor were they easy. But with the grace of God and the help of my all-loving Father, I was able to get through it.

With all that being said, 2012 is going to be great! I have learned from my mistakes, I have learned how to become a more obedient Christian, how to Love deeper, how to care more, how to be more patient(sort of) and how to be a better me! I am so ready to tackle 2012 and see what is thrown my way. I know feel more equiped with knowledge, wisdom, grace, love, kindness, compassion etc to go on this year and live it to the fullest. I will be an everlasting, loving, joyful Christian that I have always been, and I am going to let my little light shine!

I hope you all will begin to think about 2011, and 2012 and reflect on the things that you want to change, the things that made you who you are, and the things that helped you to make it this far. I know that once you reflect on 2011, and have an open mind for this year of 2012 you will succeed, and great things will come your way.
I pray that God blesses you all greatly this year.

Love and Peace.
