I know many people have been blogging for a while and yet I just didn't have the heart to start one myself. . .now I am more excited than ever to start because I have a purpose. What is my purpose? My purpose is simply to take this next year and learn to love my husband more. He has spent over 5 years of our marriage laying his life down for me and I ask myself what have I really been willing to sacrifice for him? My heart is longing for a year of fullness in our marriage like never before. Somehow I know that my heart is bursting forth with so many dreams--speaking, writing, ministering--and yet for this time I want to put my energy and efforts into someone else--ironically my husband and I are one so it really is myself and the more I continue to mature the more I realize the oneness all around us. Everyday my actions are effecting not only me but every one around me. It is with great humility and grace that I embark on a journey like never before--seeking the treasure of knowing the joy of giving myself fully and completely to another being my amazing husband as I have never before. Father, I know not where I'm going, but I do know my eyes are fixed upon You and with this I am content and confident it will be the most exciting and rewarding journey I have ever taken in my life. The anchor is pulled up the sails are set and away I go!!!
Who will you lay your life down for this year?
