Last year at the beginning of the year, I
chose a word that I wanted to represent me for the year 2013. I wanted the word to be a point of reference
for some things in my life. Finally I came
up with the worth GROWTH. There were
three specific areas that I wanted to see this growth.
First, I wanted to become a better
writer. Unfortunately I totally failed
in that quest. Last year would have been
a great year to write about the happenings of my life…but there was so much going on and during that whole year I
had absolutely no desire to write about them or anything else.
I also wanted to grow in the knowledge
of God’s Word… to grow closer to him.
I know that I have grown in the knowledge of God’s word… but the growth I really wanted…just simply
didn’t happen. I tried. After I typed those words I took a long
pause…. Maybe that is my answer…the “I”
tried. I’m going to have to do some thinking on this
statement.
Growing as a musician was the last thing
I chose. I love playing my clarinet and I spent HOURS
playing it. How do I know I’m better you
might ask… Well, there are a couple of reasons. First, my husband told me that he has noticed
I squeal less. But the real reason I
know I have improved is because my orchestra director told me he was going to
turn the microphone up. Yip, I must be
better.
