Here are a few goals for this next year (2010). These are two categories of many.
1. Read 10 Books - This may sound like small, but I am a slow reader and would rather maintain than speed read.
2. Read 15 Pages A Day (Jan-May) - Objective sub-goal of the above.
3. Play the Guitar (15 mins/day)
1. Give to Church Monthly
2. Develop a Budget (and hopefully live by it) - Deadline Jan. 31
3. Buy a Car
4. Open a Roth IRA
7 of 13 Goals for the New Year!
On my birthday I received a book, which I have been slowly reading since. Its a book on prayer. So I wanted to leave a few quotes on my blog to remind me of the powerful points made in this book. Here are a couple:
"If God is sovereign, then he is in control of all the details of my life. If he is loving, then he is going to be shaping the details of my life for my good. If is all-wise, then he's not going to do everything I want, because I don't know what I need. If he is patient, then he is going to take time to do all this. When we put all these things together—God’s sovereignty, love, wisdom, and patience—we have a divine story."
- A Praying Life, p. 22
"Unanswered prayers create some of the tensions in the story God is weaving in our lives."
- A Praying Life, p. 22
