In what area of your life do you most need growth, and what will you do about it this year?

Oh, there are so many areas that need work! I have found going through these questions such a helpful discipline though. It has made me consider areas of my life that I had almost forgotten about and made me re-evaluate things in light of God and who I am in him.

I have come up with plenty of things to do in my desire to grow, not because if I do these things, I will achieve a higher spiritual plane and be more acceptable to God, but because of my desire to know God more and to reflect him more. Having the accountability here means that I can look back clearly at what I said had to be done, whether I did it, and whether I have learnt anything and grown from it.

Lead me in your truth and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation;
for you I wait all the day long.
Psalm 25:5
