It's Been a While...

I haven't posted anything since Halloween time... I have been extremely busy with all things Christmas around the church.

I don't know how many will read this, but I want to express my gratitude to the choir at LRBC for their hard work on the cantata, and also for their generous Christmas gift. This year was our 12th Christmas cantata together!

I want to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas, and best wishes for the New Year. I don't know what your New Year's resolutions may be, but I really only have two: First, to lose weight. Again. A friend was commenting that they had struggled with their weight forever; they had spent their whole life either dieting, or needing to diet. I sympathize. Second, I want to have an impact and an influence on those around me. It saddens me that there are people that I have been rubbing shoulders with for years, and I know that I have not made much of a difference in their lives. I want God to change that in me this year.

What do you want to accomplish in '09?

P.S. - I obviously didn't make it to Augusta's Biggest Loser... but I did get a sales pitch from PHC to separate me from my wallet.
