New Year Goals - 2009: Update #1

As of right now, I seem to be doing OK.

My Goals Thus Far:

• By Faith, I will be over 90% with my Quiet Times in 2009, with over 90% each month.
• By Faith, a family member will be baptized this year.
• By Faith, I will lose weight and be under 175 pounds by the end of July.
• By Faith, Joyville will be up and running by the end of January.

It is up and running. And it is doing very well, I might add. Much better than I expected it would be. It actually got started on January 18th. To that I say a mighty AMEN!

• By Faith, I will support my wife emotionally and lead her spiritually in 2009.
• By Faith, I will read a book a month (in addition to the Bible).
• By Faith, I will consider others and not think of myself.

I am keeping a list of topics for each month. I beleive that if I keep focused on a topic for each month, I will become more successful.

I am also keeping a list of books that I am reading. Right now, I am not doing so well. I am just not one who gets excited about reading much of anything. It's really difficult to keep on top of reading a book...
