BIG little STEPS

This morning I was going through a stack of papers when I came across a to-do list from the beginning of this year. Often times I make lists like this and never get around to many of my goals. Sometimes I have done nothing on these lists. This time it was different. I finished every goal.

• I got my car fixed. Registered. Insured. And have been driving it for a month and a half.
• I not only applied at Walgreens but have been working there since the beginning of February.
• I went to the temple and made special promises as I took the next step on my spiritual journey.
• I began piano lessons a few weeks ago with Wendy McNiven. AMAZINGNESS.
• I am again attending my "conventional ward" with my family. I am again the Sunbeam teacher! :)

I only made these five goals in January because I wanted to be able to actually accomplish them.

And I did!! :D

They may seem small, but every single one of these was a pretty big step. The way was filled with many little obstacles. The kind of pebbles that easily beset me. But victory was mine. Though not mine alone.

I feel grateful. Encouraged. Inspired.

Like the little engine that could.

"Though our outward man perish,

yet the inward man is renewed day by day."

2 Corinthians 4:16

I will continue to walk a little taller.
