welcome 2014

going into a new year you always see posts like 

"2013 was hard, looking forward to a fresh starts"

or

"a new year, a new beginning"

no matter how great or how bad your year was, it's a new year. 

another chance to live your best life.

for my friends around the world, 

here are some things that happened in 2013 in my life: 

- started a new job at my church :::

 first i started as working on a homeless shelter project part time, 

then started working full time as the children's ministry 

leader and summer intern, 

now i am an assistant to ministries.

- directed a kids camp where we had 80 kids come out for a week!

- i got to be in two of my closest friends weddings

- made some new friends

- went on a missions trip to a place called pinehouse lake for the 7th time

- got to visit lots of friends in two different cities

- started co-leading a small group

- spoke at a couple smallish conferences

- & probably a lot more i am forgetting.

where to next? -----> 

i have no idea. i desire to live completely in God's will. & more often than not that means not always knowing what is next. i know God has a plan but He has yet to fully tell me. right now i am busy with my job and busy with some ministries i am involved in. i am happy with where God is taking me but i know that there is something big around the corner. i am just not sure how close to the corner i am. 

i usually make a new years resolution. its usually something where i want to see a change in my life. this year i decided not to. i try to make changes as God speaks so i am going to it try this way this year. here's to hoping!

happy new year friends!
