2014 - Press On!

 Today is January 1, 2014 – Happy New Year Friends!
It’s been over a month since my last post because I have been “Crazy Busy”!  The Christmas season is always crazy busy for me!  You know all about the hustle and bustle of Christmas so I won’t go on and share mine, but I will tell you that I am pressing on towards the goal.

 I survived the busy-ness and even had time to enjoy the special moments with family, friends and church family.  From potlucks, to parties, to places, to preparations, to presents, I was able to PRAISE Him in all of it! 

Philippians 3:13-14 says,” Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”

I know that in 2013 God has richly blessed me with many things.  Yes, I had struggles and tears, but I am here to say God helped me get through it.  If you struggled during 2013, forget what is behind and press on.  2014 will be just as awesome if you and I can stay focused and continue to press on towards the goal.  To God be the glory!

Remember to take time to put God first in your day and you will be blessed.  I have been faithful by opening God’s word first before e-mail and facebook!  I hope you do the same!

God’s Blessings to you in 2014!
