Today I went to the nursing home to sing for their church service. On my drive home I decided to turn off my music and meditate and pray. Eyes open of course to se the road. After several minutes of doing this I started thinking the scripture Ephesians 3:7. I had never read this and I do not remember ever hearing this in church but maybe I did at some time and just don't realize it. Well when I got home I read the scripture and it blew me away.
Ephesians 3:7 of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effective working of his power.
Why is this significant to me? For a awhile now I have had thoughts and discussions with my best friend about starting a womans prayer group and ministry. Also God has been opening doors for me in the music ministry of our church. Thank you God for what you are doing in my life. I pray that Your will be done in my life so that I serve you the way you want me to.
It just kind of confirmed to me that I need to work on my knowledge of the bible so that I can do this kind of ministry.

What I want out of this new year
To start off the New Year what should I do? Make resolutions that really don't mean anything. NO A deeper commitment to my relationship with God YES. Trying to change and grow into the person God wants me to be. How do I How do I serve better? How do I become what God expects. This made me think about all the things I do that keep me from being the child of God I should be. So here are my commitments:
1. Study Gods word more fervently.
2. Work on serving God and others instead of focusing so much on myself.
3. Change my eating habits because they effect my health and how I feel about myself. Stop stuffing down my feelings with food and allow Gods word to fill those voids.
On we go!
