As I think about this year I wonder what drives me... Some are driven by love, jealousy, fear, pride, shame, honor, respect... Here are some things that drive me...
1. I want more of Him and less of me. I journal about this often... my life, my attitude, my everything... I want it to be about Him and not me.
2. I don't want to mess up as a mom. The fear of messing up my baby drives me to strive to be a good mom. Learn all I can and do all I can for this child the Lord has entrusted me with.
3. I am not clear of the future, but I can't wait to see what the Lord does. I am taking this one day at a time... school has started, but after that I'm not sure yet I have great expectations as to what will be and in order to see that, I am driven to do well.
4. I continue to learn about myself. I am a child of God, but there are many pieces that make me who I am in Him... And as I continue to grow and learn about the person that God has molded me to be is an adventure. I am a third culture kid... and being 100% Korean and 100% American is a difficult thing and continues to be a challenge as I weigh out the cultures, traditions and values of both cultures and form it into who I want me to be. Along with that I also have many things I have experienced in life that make me who I am and the person the Lord uses for His kingdom. I pray I will do all I can do in what the Lord has invested in me and that is a driving factor in my life.
These are just some thoughts that I had...
