Recently I have felt like a stranger in my own life... I look in the mirror, and I don't recognize the face oddly staring back at me. A moment ago I reread an entry from January of last year. I could feel the enthusiasm I had at that time, but the truth is that that enthusiasm dwindled by the end of 2005. I long to have that same excitement in my life... to once again have that confidence in the Lord. So, instead of letting life happen, I want to live life. My theme for this year: Alive in Christ... Training for Eternity.
