2013 is a better year for great things to happen, and so we wrote down our resolutions. Guess what he wrote down on his paper... Make Rachel run a 10km marathon.

such a tall order. it wasn't on mine. :p

anyway, coming back to resolutions.. often not fulfilled because we forget about them as the months go by into the year. But guess what.. this year, resolutions to me were not just what i hope to try to achieve, but rather, i see them as commitments. If not, why bother?

Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy, godly lives you should be living! (2 Peter 3:11 LB)

Where I want to be, what I would like to be, I resolute now and choose to be defined by Godly, loving commitments. 

Rick Warren once said:
Your commitments can develop you, or they can destroy you, but either way, they will define you. Tell me what you’re committed to, and I’ll tell you what you’ll be in twenty years.
It is at this very point of commitment that most people miss God’s purpose for their lives. Many are afraid to commit to anything, so they just drift through life. Others make half-hearted commitments to competing values, and that leads to frustration and mediocrity. Others make a full commitment to worldly goals, such as becoming wealthy or famous, and they end up disappointed and bitter.
Every choice we make has eternal consequences, so we need to choose wisely: “Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy, godly lives you should be living!” (2 Peter 3:11 LB). As believers, we should be defined by godly, loving commitments. If we want to become more like Jesus, then we need to commit to the same things he did.

How interesting it spoke to me. What does your commitments say about you?

My resolutions this year is the theme: Back to Basics. Revel in His Love. Flap your wings. Ignite the Fire.

Hello 2013! I am all ready to take you on.

Newlyweds Front Door Surprise


{.Your love is extravagant.}


welcome

As i sit here and think about all that You've done
About how You gave me Your One and only Son
And I'm trying to fathom all that You are, but so far,
Lord, You're so beyond me
And i fall down in reverence and i fall down in fear
And i'm asking You, Lord, won't You please draw near
Won't You open my eyes so that i can see
The way that You are working in me
chorus:
All i need is Your love
To come and fill this heart of mine
My heart is a desert that has gone dry
And i need Your love to carry me by

So i lay down my life and i put it before You
All i put all that i have in Your hands
And i'm not going to question, why You're so faithful
Why that You give me the blessing that You do
Let the glory be known, let the glory be shown
Lift You up unto the throne

By,by,by,by
To carry me by, by, by, by, by
To carry me by
