A Day in the Life

We were taking these pictures today and when I was walking back to our room I couldn't help but think, wouldn't it be nice if these pictures reflected our normal everyday life! Maybe for some people they would, but unfortunate not in our home. We are currently working through making goals in our lives, physically, spiritually, mentally, and relationally ( emotionally). In doing this, we are really addressing things that aren't working and things that need work. It's always good to have a vision, to have goals to work towards, to improve and become more of who God wants you ( me) to be.
Tim and I are going to focus on our marriage and improving it. We decided to read a book together and have started one called Love and Respect: The Love She Most Desires, The Respect He Desperately Needs. I highly recommend it so far! We definitely needed some refreshing. I also highly recommend setting goals in your life, making sure that they are realistic and there is a clear plan set of how they will be accomplished. We heard a sermon on this very topic this week and the verse used was from Luke 2:52, which says,
And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

We need to grow and set goals, life may not be picture perfect, but if we look at Christ and make good changes in ourselves that seems to me like a good start!
