What's your plan for this year?

So here we are on the last day of 2008. I've got a question for you. A somewhat tough and maybe difficult question for some of you to answer. Here goes...

Did you meet your goals for spiritual growth in 2008?

Wait a minute (some of you are saying)! I didn't have any goals. Thus my point. We make goals for almost every area of our lives. What age we will retire at. How many kids. When and where we will get married. What job or career we want to have. But few of us plan for our own spiritual growth.

That being the case, let's enter 2009 with a goal. I'll list several "categories" for you to ponder for this year. For those of you bold enough (and wanting accountability) reply to this post with your goals (after prayerful consideration). In an upcoming post I'll list some of my goals so that you can hold me accountable!

Here are the categories (you fill in the blanks to any that you choose):

1. I will read my Bible _____ (should be easy if you follow this blog).
2. I will pray ________.
3. I will serve ________.
4. I will memorize (Bible verses) ________.
5. I will evangelize by _____________.
6. I will worship by _________.
7. I will practice the spiritual discipline(s) _________.

Or you can add your own. Don't go overboard and set an unrealistic expectation. Pray. Discern God's plan for you and then, if you're daring, post your growth plan for accountability.
