Merry Day After Christmas

It's the day after Christmas and, while many of my fellow Americans are enjoying a day off or out shopping, I am at work. I'm exhausted because I got 4 hours of sleep, then flew from Vegas this morning before coming straight to work. Of course, there isn't much to do here. As a matter of fact, I don't think anyone at NBCU is doing any business today. The people that aren't off for the rest of the week are just catching up on paperwork and getting organized.

So I'm going to take this opportunity to blog...yay for you.

With 2008 fast approaching, I've been thinking a lot about my plans for the upcoming year. Without a vision, the people perish and without a plan, Dionna feels lost.

Here are some questions that are guiding my 2008 planning:

• Who would I like to get to know better in 2008?
• What internal area would I like to improve?
• What life milestones would I like to accomplish this year? (international trip, apply for grad school, win the lottery, etc.)
• What areas could have been improved in 2007?
• What could I kick myself for doing/saying in 2007?
• What did I enjoy most about 2007?
• What would I like to see God do in my life in 2008?
• What would I like to see God do in the lives of my friends and family in 2008? Could God be calling me to assist in any of that in the coming year?

After using these questions to brainstorm, I'm going to focus in on the things that may have repeated themselves or stood out in the answers and put some plans down on paper.

I'd really like to know what God might be doing with this whole worship ministry in 2008. I know what I'd LIKE to see...I won't go into any detail, but maybe something involving recording a live worship album...

Merry day after Christmas!
