our faithful supporters and givers and prayer partners. We are so very grateful. You have allowed
our family to minister in ways that we were not able to before and for believing in what God is doing
in and through our family. The doors that are already opening up for Hannah…well…we cannot wait
to share in 2017!!! We are excited to see what God does and how he changes us for the better this
year. So…I want to leave you with this…I had already posted it to FB, but felt it was necessary to
share.
My resolution for 2017 is not to set one, but to look back on 2016 and see what I can do differently.
May I believe more and not doubt God's goodness or provisions. May I be prompted more by love
and less by fear. May I seek to be closer to Christ...not by more head knowledge, but more by sitting
and listening to hear HIS voice. May I be more kind to my family...and be more intentional with those
relationships I hold very dear. May I worry less about other's opinion of me or my family and just seek
to find the opinion of Christ and how HE views me more important than anything or anyone else. May
I do what HE has called me to do even if I lack the confidence and trust that God is more than capable
of perfecting in me that which is imperfect. May I speak more gracious and less harsh and may I always
value more that which cannot be replaced with earthly possessions. May I be more grateful for what I
have and where God has me and may I seek to sit at the feet of Jesus more and hear HIS heartbeat...
the heartbeat that gives me life and breath every second of the day. May I choose to forgive...even
when my flesh does not want to. May obedience far supersede the sacrifice and may I keep my eyes
focused on HIM so much more than what I did in 2016 and finally, may I always remember more that
Christ is right here with me and HE will NOT leave me. Ever. EVER...Michelle 2016
