So I know it is  now a few weeks into 2008 but after a two week perspective re-alignment, (aka our church’s two week fast) I hope to be back into the blogging action.

A couple things:

Im trying my hand at selling some baked goods. My Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip cookies are item number 270205136332 on ebay

They are awesome!This recipe makes soft and fluffy cookies! I made them with Agave Nectar instead of sugar, so they are better for us, and low on the glycemic index, and of course made with whole wheat flour. So awesome!
Also, this year I want to journal more. About what’s going on in my life, the things that are on my heart, etc. I used to be really consistent with journaling, but then with 18 credits my last semester at school, planning a wedding, and a handful of other things going on, last year was not very fruitful in that area. So that’s another goal I have.
I have a few other business ideas rolling around in my head. I think in so many ways I take after my awesome mother, but in this way, I most certainly see my father in this part of me. This year I have a few options of ways to go in my life, and I feel a sort of leading in one particular area, but am waiting for the important confirmations. But I also am a big component of creativity, and multiple sources of income. (Totally my dad if you know him, right?) And a prayer I’ve been praying over us but over so many others too is that we would work smarter, not harder this year. Those business idea, what are they? Cant tell you yet…. I have to explore them more before I say anything :) Sorry
What else…. Ive been praying for more creativity this year too. And I’ll tell you what, its already begun. Im not bragging, I give all the credit to my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. One morning, as I was still in bed waking up that day, I had a God thought/idea for a skit. Skits are hard to write, without them being, um, cheesy. I only have a rough outline – but it was totally God. I was not even thinking about a skit or Go Missions (our church’s missions organization) or anything. Chances are I was thinking about how much I missed my morning cup of coffee during the fast… as sad as it was that was the hardest part for me lol. Oh well…. but anyway….
2008 is really going to be an awesome year! I can already tell! Im very excited, and so looking forward to all the great things happening. As we put our perspective on the One who made us, it is really amazing how everything else changes and our lives have so much more meaning.
Are you allowing Jesus to have free reign in your life? Is He first – over everything? I mean Everything?
