Happy New Years!

Happy New Years Everyone!

The kids are back in school and everything is starting to get back to normal...Right?

NO!

I still have my indoor Christmas decorations up...and I am still unpacking from our Christmas trip. As I drive around my area I feel a little better because there are still people that have Christmas lights and lawn decorations out at their houses. I wish I could be like some of my friends that get their stuff put up right after Christmas...it just doesn't happen that way with me.
Especially since we have been out of town and still getting over the yucky cold and cough that we passed around our household.

OH Well ~ Life and the New Year have moved into motion and great things are ahead of us!
Time once again for ending the past and beginning a new.

For me I have already been amazed at the New Year.

This New Year is full of great change for me.

I have recently stepped down from serving with our Womens Ministry and confidently stepping out with the calling and vision the Lord has been stirring in me for sometime.

In great measures the Lord is stretching me but at the same time He is confirming things and bringing things to fruition.

What about you?

Is there something you should be doing? (Serving, Ministering, Trusting,Giving, Loving, Living on Purpose!)
Is there something you should not be doing? (Cheating, Lying, Worrying, Disobeying, Not Completing, Overcommiting)

I will share some of my heart and discoveries over the next few weeks as I study for myself and dig into the word for guidance into His plan this year for me. I pray you will do the same for your life.

This year I pray we see a great harvest of people coming to acknowledge Jesus as their Lord and peoples lives displaying a great bundle of fruit!

May it begin with me!

Be Inspired,

Vern

Vern,
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your new format is so cool! I look forward to seeing some of your accessories! And, I must say, I really love the purpose of your blog-to magnify what God has/is doing in your life! What better purpose is there?

Vern,

It was SO good to see you on Thursday night in Houston!!! I wish I could've seen you more and gotten to catch up with you. I hated that I had to miss the morning after with you girls but was so excited that Lysa and Holly were getting to go to San Antonio with you!! I was praying for your event and can't wait to hear how it went. I know God showed up and uses you in a powerful way through all that you did to bring them to HIM!!!

Hope I get to see you at She Speaks this summer!! Love you bunches!

Hey Sweet Friend~

Thank you again for hosting me in San Antonio. I had such a blast. Loved the River Walk adventure. And I loved meeting all the amazing people God has drawn to your ministry.

Love you BIG!!!

Hi, Vern!!! Thank for stopping by my blog today and signing up to be a "follower." This is all so new and fun to me. I have yet to figure out how to "follow," but once I do I will for sure follow you. Seeing your name brought a smile to my face. I wore your earrings to church Sunday (black hoops with "diamonds" on them).

Love you, me
