Today is the first day of the rest of my life...I know this saying is old and overused.
But it is true never-the-less. Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
I intend to make my life that into something of value. Not by what I do, but by whom I become.
I am consecrating my life to my Father in heaven. I am developing the attributes of Christ. I am sharing my blessings with those around me.
What blessings? you may ask.
My greatest blessing is my health. I am growing my body & mind from sickly to healthy, from abnormal to above normal. I am doing this by making my body a living sacrifice to my Lord. I will eat and drink and move and breath in such a way that my body will be cleansed and pure. I will feed my mind with things that are good and wholesome and edifying.
I am blessed with a curiosity about and love for people and new adventures. I will reach out to others, I will help as I am able and I will pray for those I love, those I like and even for those I don't like.
I will remember those from my past. I will get to know new people in my present and I will plan to become a blessing to those I have yet to meet. I will build relationships that are healthy and uplifting to my friends, my family and to myself.
I am blessed with talents and abilities, most still untapped and untried. I will dedicate my spare time to developing my skills. I will develop skills that feel both natural and unnatural to me. I am blessed with the ability to learn and grow and I will do exactly that.
Yes, today is the first day of the rest of my life...
