Resolutions for 2012 (acrostic poem)

St. Andrew's Abbey 12-'11
Ridiculous and unattainable
Exclamations of intent, when
Stubborn volition will undermine
Over and over and over again!
Long after resolve withers
Under the pressure of a contaminated will,
This truth remains to pound in my brain: That
In my greatest weakness, He is my
Only strength and the source of
New vision and hope;
So I will set my face toward God!

  1. I'm so glad Jesus is our strength & Redeemer! I enjoyed your memories of Christmas' past. Those new coloring books sound like they were fun. I loved the smell of new things like books and crayons. My sister still 'colors' and gives us pictures to hang on the frig. Well, we can put our feet up now and relax lots. If only I could stop eating Hershey kisses!!!

  2. I need to be saved from the Ghiradelli's (sp?)!!!

    We didn't get much at Christmas compared to other kids, but it was always very special.
