Thinking about my New Year's Resolutions

2009 is just two days away . . . I don't normally make a resolution however I am really thinking about being a better person, a better mother, a better friend, a better Christian. The last is one that I struggle with. I know what I should be doing to live for Him but on a daily basis, I am a slacker, to say the least. So I will start with gratitude . . . . . to live with much thanks - I want my life to exemplify gratitude. It's really easy to dwell on what we don't have, etc. but I want my life to be a reflection of His faithfulness. His love is not circumstantial and so my praising him should not be either.
