I do not really like to set New Year’s Resolutions but I think a new year is a great time to focus on what areas of our lives we should improve or change. For us, some things have just gotten out of whack because of the holidays, schedule changes, etc. and we need to get back on track. So here are some personal goals and some things the Lord has shown me, personally…
Crystal posted her great goals here at Biblical Womanhood. She has a mr linky up so we can share and post our progress monthly 
Thanks for the inspiration, Crystal!
First, I have to say I am so thankful to God for doing what He has done through my blog. I’ve never had a blog before and it has been amazing being able to share my thoughts, my faith and just share my little revelations of God with you. Your feedback, comments and emails are so edifying, thank you. I can go back through the posts since I began this blog and actually see how God has grown me and I cannot wait to see what He does through 2009.
Goals for womanlyexcellence.com
- Blog more about God — such as reflections from my quiet times, etc.
- Continue my Proverbs 31 study
- Be sure to limit my time blogging/reading blogs so that it does not take priority
Personal Goals
- I have loved blogging these kinds of posts but the Lord has shown me that I need to make sure I do not keep that behind the computer screen. My goal is to be bold and speak the things of God to people around me, friends and family and not just online.
- Be more spiritually disciplined– especially in terms of the time I spend before Him listening (necessary for all of the above goals!)
Household/Family Goals
- Have a regular family game/movie night
- Get the kids more involved with household chores
- Get back on a cleaning schedule
- Do a Bible & educational lesson of some sort with them daily
- My husband and I have a heart for hospitality and we have always wanted our home open to friends but we become so busy and self-consumed, so our goal is to set dates aside (maybe monthly?) to have someone over for dinner, or something.
Just for Fun…if I ever find the extra time!
- Get some photos scrapbooked in the kids album (I am getting so behind!)
- Read books (Jeff gave me the 3rd book in the O’Malley series by Dee Henderson, which I love for Christmas 2007 but I have yet to finish…just because I have not had time to pick it up!)
