New Years was awesome. It wasn't like the past 3, (which I miss a ton) but it was wonderful. God opens and closes doors according to His plan, and the past couple years on New Years were some of the best times of my life but that door has closed. This year, Rob and I drove around. That's right, all we did is drive and talk. Rob is one of the coolest people I've ever met. His story growing up is absolutely incredible. He always drives me to areas in his life where stories have been made. The stories are crazy! After a few hours of driving around, we picked up my baby sister. She is also one of the coolest people I have ever met in my entire life. She also has a story that blows my mind away. She is such a funny person to hang out with. It's always a great time. Even if it's a serious time, it's a great time. She also brought her from with her. He seems like a good guy. He's got a humor side. After we picked them up, guess what we did? Drove! That is how I spend my final 2010 hours, and my first 2011 hours, and honestly I wouldn't have wanted it differently. I love driving. There are only a select amount of things that are more relaxing than driving haha. I enjoy thinking, because usually when I think too much, I'm convicted of certain things, and honestly it just reminds me of how much I can't do life on my own, and how good God is to me, even when I am not to Him.
New Years day I worked. I did New Years Eve too, but New Years Day wasn't as exciting. Oh well.
I cannot stop listening to a song by Shawn McDonald. It's his new single out called "Closer." I read that his new album, "Closer" will be out March 2011. I'm so excited because he is such a talented artist and his sound HYPES me up! Anyhow, I'm going to post the video with the lyrics in this post. I feel this way a lot, and it's tight because it pushes me more and more to know the Lord! Which is one of my New Years Resolutions...to know Jesus more and more!
That is only one of my New Years Resolutions. My second one is to focus on Priorities. I live on my own now, so every decision counts. It's easier to do what I want, rather than what I need to do. I want to make sure I prioritize first. My third one is to read more. I'm reading this book right now called "Not Even A Hint" by Joshua Harris. Go search it up! It's awesome. I tried to read it when I was with my ex girlfriend, but I could never stay motivated to reading it. There are a lot of things in that book that I wish I was more educated on during my period I was reading it the first time, but it is helping me currently. My last resolution is to be a better friend to my friends than I already am. Sometimes I'm selfish, and I want to learn to be more understanding and loving. I want to be available for my friends whenever, wherever. Pray for them, encourage them, and share love with them like Jesus shares love with me!
What I like about life, is just because it's the New Year doesn't mean it's the only time to re-solve your struggles. Especially with Jesus, I have been remade, and I honestly can start over whenever for anything I want! What are your New Years Resolutions? I want to know!
Anyhow, I need to throw some Laundry in tonight yet. I have church tomorrow, which I am real excited for.
Here is that song I was talking about. It's amazing...I love it.
