Welcome 2014! We've been away at a church conference in Melbourne and then had a good friend of mine staying with us so I am still processing the start of this new year.

As you know I am one of those people who love new beginnings and can't resist the lure of setting fresh goals/intentions for each new year.

I also have my 'word' or theme for the year (which I've done since 2006! Wow) and for the first time I'm doing Ali Edward's 'One Little Word' class to document it :) I'm excited about having a record like this to look back on at the end of the year and am also hoping it helps me stay on track with my goals (somehow!)


I tried to have a few other words for this year, but I couldn't get away from 'abundant' as in abundant life - the kind of life Jesus promised in John 10:10 etc. I'm looking forward to doing a bit more study on it and seeing what it really means for me personally.
