Inch by Inch
So it's a new year, 2006...how is that really possible i wonder? I spose I am supposed to start fresh, promise to do something different this year...Why do we need a day on a calendar, and an hour on a clock to turn over in order to feel motivated to change? Don't get me wrong, I think it is great to dedicate the new year to the Lord, but why not every month, week, or day even. I guess the bigger the time span the bigger the promise to change?
It is always frustrating to be at the begining of change, its exciting too, but the climb has barely begun and the chance of backsliding seems inevitable...I wish i could just leap up to the top of the mountain, but change is a process...you have a goal and you work toward it.
I don't like that I am still who I don't want to be...at this point of the process it takes little effort to see where you started, you just have to turn your head, progress seems slow going.
but I take heart in the fact that "the One who calls me is faithful and He will do it." (1 Thes 5:24).
So what is my new year's resolution you ask. simple to seek God above all else.
