so this is the start of a new year. i’m looking forward to it very much, hopefully getting stuck into my phd and hopefully church will keep moving forward and getting more and more exciting. this year is a year of HOPE across the country, which is a great mission, aiming to bring hope to many people who are in need.
God spoke to me on sunday about priorities. the passivity issue is effectively just an issue of having incorrect priorities. i dislike the whole “new year’s resolution” thing because it seems a little contrived, but the new year is at least as good a time as any to start something new. i’m going to keep a private prayer journal as well as a public blog, so i can look back over it and see how God has answered my prayers. i’ve done it before and was amazed by the experience, so i’m now going to make it a priority.
