Every New Day

Every new day is an opportunity to make something new and to change one's self. I don't want to be complacent or stagnant. I want to be a living, breathing, creation that will bring glory and joy to the world. Despite my failures, despite my selfishness, despite the areas where I am weak, I will continue to thank God for all of the blessings He has provided me with.

It's so easy to be human, to complain, to submit to the world's desires, to allow things to be all about me, myself, and I... But I don't want to be that girl. That girl can sit in a corner all alone and cry herself to sleep, for all I care. The woman that I want to be is loving, helpful, is slow to anger and thinks before she speaks. She knows who she is, and she does not worry about the future because she is secure in the plans that God has for her.
