Scripture to start out 2017

Psalm 51:1-12
Create in me a clean heart, O God.

In 2016 :
My eldest graduated high school, got her first job, turned 18, started college.
Youngest turned 12 and started 7th grade. Flew on my first plane (6 times to be exact)

Left part of my heart in Peru.

Hiked many miles.

Lost my Grandpa.
Celebrated Mom's 60th birthday.
Hiked  many of those miles with my mom.
Experienced some of the most high and lowest times- emotionally and spiritually this year in. my. life.

New fears that only some can understand.
Gained new friends and lost a few.

But I choose to give God all the glory for each of these things.

And

I learned the most this year that we must wait for His timing cause only He knows what truly lies ahead for each of us. (Really learned what this means)

So, I desire .... to have a clean heart and a renewed spirit and walk with Him each day, each step ....all the way.-2017!
