My Life is Half Over

I turned 36 today.

If statistics concerning life expectancy are true, my life is about half over.

There is so much more I want to accomplish in my lifetime.

Some of the things will require change…

Some of the things will require action…

But all of these things will need God’s help.

Are there things in your life that you still desire to accomplish?  If so, what changes need to be made and what actions need to be taken?

The Last 90 Days of My Life

It’s been almost two months since I’ve posted here and in case you are curious, it was on purpose.
I determined to accomplish two goals by April 2010, so this meant that some “things” would need to be set aside for a couple months and this blog happened to be one those “things.” What two things are more important than my readers? Great question…if you were asking. This year I set out to read the Bible from cover to cover in 90 days and also drop 20-25 lbs. off of my weight. So how am I doing? Although the last 90 days have been very challenging in many ways, I am on track to finish the Bible by March 31 and have already lost 20 lbs.
Believe me, I am not informing you of these goals for the sake of my pride. I’m ashamed to say that I have not read the Bible all the way through in a couple years and over the last decade, I have ignored my health and eating habits.
There are many experiences I’ve had over the last few months that I wanted to share with you through this blog, but I was determined to finish what I had started without distraction.
As my 90 days draws to a close, I want to challenge you. Was there something you set out to do during 2010, but have already quit? If that unaccomplished goal was important to you a couple months ago, it is imperative for you to begin again. With a little determination and discipline, you can do it.”
