He IS
Since I failed to mention the importance of letting go and letting God in my last entry, Please allow me to do so at this time (that’s the good thing about God’s grace, he allows us to repent of our sins and hold no ill will).
In order for 2010 to be a year filled with blessings from the most high. I am a true believer that it is of great importance to do away with worrying about trivial and unimportant matters that I have no control over. As I sat in church today, I was reminded that God has and will always supply all of my needs. The foundation of all my endeavors must be to always put God first and everything else will fall into its rightful place. Not to say that I will have a year without trials and distress. I will be better prepared to handle and make wiser decisions. So, as I start this journey into 2010 I will keep God’s words close to my heart (mind).
I will never get this thing called Life right. Hey, But I'm quite alright with that!
Matthew 6:25-34 (New International Version)
Do Not Worry
25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life[a]?
28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Twenty-Ten
2010 is now. I am looking forward to not only a good year, but a great
decade. Moving forward I will lay the groundwork for many projects and
initiatives. I find it important to emphasize and remind myself of the
philosophy that will reside as the foundation of these efforts: Quality
over Quantity. It is a simple idea but one that gets lost in the shuffle
of everyday operations. I am different. I set my own standard. I play by
my own terms since I have decided to participate in this game of life.
So even if it takes more time to produce a great work then so be
it. At the end of it all, the product and process is more important than
the payout. Besides, if I produce enough quality I'll eventually have
quantity. It's that simple. Looking ahead to a good Life.
