LIfe Goals

Life Goals: I believe the Lord will help me to achieve many things as I live my life with His purpose in mind. At the end of the day I know that I want more than anything else to simply have done my best to please the Lord. I hope that these goals will reflect sincere motives, and core values that are pleasing to the Lord and to those with whom God has ordained I journey through life with.


I am going to divide my goals into categories: Family, Ministry/Influence, Experential, Physical and Travel. I hope to make them specific and measurable and to trust that they are birthed out of prayer. That God would somehow translate His thoughts into my thoughts and that the scripture "Delight your self in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart" would be fulfilled.
