Well! We have made it to another year...
Isn't that a nice feeling?
Many of us have goals, dreams, visions and desires that we have brewing just waiting to see it come to pass. I won't talk about New Year's Resolutions, because personally I don't believe in them, but I will say this. With each passing day, it will be absolutely important that we invest in time of reflection. We can say we are going to do this or that all day, but without a sure fire plan in place, it won't happen. We must write the vision and make it plain. We must also run with the vision. Put feet to our faith, and go into uncharted territory, in other words, go where we have not gone before. You can't take the same steps, and go in the same direction thinking that it will happen the way you intend it to. Sometimes we just have to do it differently. And when we do, obstacles may come, but push those out of the way, and steadily move forward. You will have what you say this year, just make sure what you say lines up with the Word of God.
Three things I think all of us should be focused on doing MORE of this year:
1. Pray
2. Fast
3. Study the Word
Sounds redundant right? Many of you were like, 'She didn't say anything profound.' But how many of you did that is 2012? Not just on occasion, but were consistently doing it? It takes discipline, doesn't it? But the more you do it, the easier it becomes. It will not feel like a duty, but a lifestyle. One that you can't live without. And really...you can't.
I want to wish all of you a Happy New Year! One of significance, and great joy!

Watch Your Life Bloom
Welcome to the Official Blog of Author Dr. Lily L. Ratliff Jenkins, of the inspirational Memoir, The Life of a Lily: Growing in His Strength, Blooming in His Love, and many other writings.
Thanks for coming by to sit awhile and reflecting along with me on everything biblical. On this blog, feel free to share your thoughts and feelings about the various topics I present. They all do come from the heart and are meant for us to ponder, be enlightened, laugh, cry, and ultimately give God all of the praise.
You will hopefully find resources on everything from writing tips to creating your own memoir, how to journal, becoming better Christians and how to walk in your callings, destinies, and witty inventions that we have deep inside of us but sometimes don't quite know how to tap into and walk in. But GOD! It is in his wisdom along with an open mind that we will get through this together. Amen! So I welcome you my brothers and sisters!
