I was given a challenge by my friend, Erica, about a week ago to list 5 material and 5 spiritual things that I would like in my life. It took me a while to get them posted, but here they are:
5 Material Things
1) A new wardrobe – I would like a new up-to-date stylish wardrobe. I feel like the lady in the commercial that has let herself go since having kids, not to mention that so many of my clothes are very old.
2) A separate office (that is not in our bedroom) so I can put all of my office furniture in it, instead of having it in storage, and so I have a place to go to think.
3) A part-time job that does not interfere with raising my boys, but that can satisfy that part of my being (to think and produce)
4) A job for Fred that is truly satisfying to him, but that requires less overtime and less exposure to the evils of this world.
5) An ipod so I can download my favorite songs and play them in my new car – along with taking another step forward into this century (I’m really behind on all the techy toys)
5 Spiritual Things
1) That I can be disciplined to spend time with God everyday and increase and improve my relationship with Him, along with increasing my knowledge of His word.
2) That my family would come to know Jesus as their Savior, friend, and Redeemer, so they can really start living and experience all that God has for them.
3) That I can have the strength, wisdom, and humility to become the woman that God wants me to be – as a Daughter of Christ, Wife to Fred and Mother to Garrett & Brett
4) That I can discipline and raise my kids through God’s love, wisdom and grace so they will grow up to be all they can be in Jesus' strength.
5) That I can know, develop, and use my God-given Spiritual gifts to bring Him glory.
