There are things that I want to accomplish before April ends. Maybe by posting it here, someone out there can help me accomplish one, two or all these goals. :)
1. Pray and fast more.
2. Doing more exercise!!!!!
3. Sleep more.
4. Do my taxes.
5. Plan out all my logistics and details for my BIG ADVENTURE.
6. I want to simplify my life. I feel like I've already done as much as I could, but something inside of me is nagging me that I need to do more. I've been thinking about downsizing my car and getting a smaller one. What do you think?
7. Do a budget and keep to it. :)
8. Update, upgrade, remodel, whatever you want to call it, this blog.
9. EAT BETTER. Seriously. I know I've blogged about this before, but I really DO need to start eating better.
10. To organize my closet. It amazes me how my closet is still so packed even when I have 2 large bags of clean clothes sitting on the floor and clothes that I don't bother to hang up after wearing piled on top of one another...on the floor. Why is it still so jammed packed and yet I keep buying? Well...that will need to stop!!!
So, now that I've shared with you all of these, I'm going to ask you that you hold me accountable. Thank you!!!

THE ADVENTURE.

I'm taking an adventure this year. It's a pretty huge one.
I'm taking a risk and a HUGE step of faith in all of this.
It all started with a thought, a longing, a desire that I couldn't shake off. It depressed me to no end that I wasn’t pursuing it and I knew that I had to do it.
Then the question came, "Grace, are you willing to take this journey even though the outcome is unclear?" After much praying and thinking...my answer is "Yes. I am."
Things started to unravel. One confirmation after another.
I’ve been making efforts and steps to make this adventure happen, but ran into some stumbling blocks that made me wonder “Hmmmm…interesting. Maybe it’s too good to be true.” I felt a little bit defeated and start doubting this whole thing. Then…another confirmation came through just last night!
I’m excited and scared all at the same time.
I have no idea what the future holds.
I know I’m not sharing what this adventure is going to be because I’m still kind of scared to tell everyone. Please do not feel offended if you don’t know. I’m just not at that place yet to share with everyone.
But I am writing this on my blog for one purpose only…for you to pray for me. I guess you can say that “I’m rallying up the troops!” :)
This is going to be a BIG adventure and I need all the prayers that I can get!

I love you all!
