For us, a new decade was ushered in with 4 close friends at the Denver Botanic Gardens, and then back at our apartment with fun games and good conversation. (In fact, they are coming back over in an hour for breakfast and to spend the day together) God woke me (Dave) up early this morning to spend some time meditating on His desire for this year which inevitably led to the cliche "new years resolutions." I am drawn to the development of Jesus as recorded in Luke 2:52. It says that Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man. I like to divide my goals for the year in to 4 similar catagories; intelectual goals, physical goals, goals having to do with my walk with God, and goals having to do with my relationships with others (which usually consists of my non-believing friends and my marriage). Why not take a few minutes to ask God how He wants you to develop in these four areas and set some goals that can be measured periodically. May God bless your new year and give you growth and development in wisdom, stature, your relationship with Him and with others. Happy New Year!!
