2. Be a mentor - yes and no. I have sought out to do this intentionally a couple of times, but not really succeeded. I have realized though there are some kids right under my nose at church that I am going to invest in hardcore in the next couple of months...these boys have awesome hearts and I can't wait to help them to become more mature followers of Christ.
3. Find a mentor. Fail. Epically. I know it wouldn't be hard if I would just go do it, but opening myself up to someone older and wiser scares me. I have no problem telling my friends about what a screw up I am, but a real life adult is a different story. I know God is leading me to do this through prayer and scripture reading so if I don't it will just be disobedience. So, here is to sucking it up and going for it.
4. Read. I have read some pretty great books for school and I am working on some on my new Kindle Touch! I am pumped about this thing! Three must reads from school last semester - Made To Stick, The Ragamuffin Gospel, and The Next Christians....great books!
5. Again, take more pictures is an epic fail. Commitment starts now though, for sure. I promise.
6. Preach! Yes, I get opportunity at Collide and at church which has been a huge blessing. Taking more time to prepare and fine tune my sermons is my new goal, which I am going to have to fight myself on, but here it goes!
7. Go to Moni's more. Well, my phone autocorrected something I typed in to Moni's the other day, but I do want to have more fun with my friends this last go round. Fun, that's what this one represents - school is school and I will get it done, but I need to focus on having a good time with my family I have created in the past three and a half years.
8. and 9. Run and work out. Fail, but I have already made a commitment and scheduled time for next semester, I think I might actually succeed this time.
10. Budget. I have a good start to my savings, not great, but I am making a plan to add to it this semester, for sure.
11. Watch more movies. I have seen a couple of new ones this year and plan to continue. Taking more time to do this with friends is a big priority!
12. Journal and follow a Bible Reading Plan - new one. I found an acrostic I am going to use in my journal (http://www.gcfw.org/c---g---s/grow/soap-journaling.html). I am also going to start using You Version reading plans (http://www.youversion.com/) which are smaller and help me to measure and maintain success a little bit easier. Not that bigger plans are wrong, I just want to see where I am head more clearly, I think.
Well, if I think of anymore anytime soon I will add them, but until then I am super excited about the last semester of my college career. I am going to miss it, I know, but I plan on taking it one step at a time and watching God show me an awesome plan for the future.
