Personal Update and Looking forward to 2022.

 As I say good bye to 2021, I am filled with excitement and hope for 2022.   I'm looking forward to some new beginnings! I'm really good at setting goals and planning how to reach them just not at all good at actually doing them. 

Some of you may have heard of  choosing a word for the year ahead.  I have chosen 2 words for 2022  - Prayer and Action. I've been working to build a stronger relationship with the Lord for many years! This year I will be learning how to and creating a more active prayer life. Action addresses the problem mentioned above - not taking action to meet my goals and following through on commitments!! 

Along with focusing and taking action with my prayer life, I will be working to improve and grow my business. I believe that God has given me the gift of encouragement. I love helping others believe in themselves and to follow dreams. (Even though I'm not good at doing it myself) For quite a while, I've wanted to create a business that allows me to share that gift with others! Finally Home Crafts is going to be how I do it. I took very tiny steps moving towards this goal in 2021 by determining my business focus and creating a few products. In 2022, I am going to work on improving and growing my little store. 

I hope you'll join me on my journey!!

May your New Year be filled with a lot of joy and love!!!
