The Art of Trying

Well it's official, as of 3.20.11 we were voted in as members at the church we have been attending for over a year now. I know for one thing, I am ridiculously excited about it. Bee and I feel very at home there and have been accepted with loving arms wide open. I strongly believe God has huge plans for us through this church, I just pray that I am not to stubborn to follow where He leads.

I am very excited to announce that I have been back into reading the Bible... heavily. I am trying really hard to read the Bible in it's entirety in a year. I have only been doing it for a little over a week, but I have yet to miss a day of my daily devotions, so that is very exciting. My prayer life has also picked up steam. I miss praying like I use to, I am slowly getting back to that point. Also during my morning devotions, I have been reading "Straight Talk to Men" by Dr. James Dobson that my mother-in-law gave to me as a gift this past Christmas. Yeah sure, I could read this book easily within a month, but I am taking it really slow. I am reading one chapter a week, and I am really enjoying it. Dr. Dobson has done a very good job in writing/editing this book, at least of so far.

Another goal I have been trying to achieve is to work on my artwork. Another goal I am working on this year is that I want to try to complete one decent size art project a week. This goal is a more flexible goal right now, but it is still something I want and need to do for my family and myself.
Reasons for doing so:

1.  I don't want to lose my knowledge of the programs I went to school for.
2. I  want to have a wider variety of artwork in my portfolio
3. I want to update my art website/portfolio
4. I want to aggressively look for a career in the digital arts.
