A belated Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year to all our readers! I know it has taken a long time to write this next blog, but it will have to be short. This month of January, our family is doing a media fast along with others from our church here in New Braunfels. For us, that means that we have no TV, video games or computer for the whole month, unless related to school or work. For those of us with e-mail, we have 1/2 hour each day to read and respond. The purpose of this fast is to 1) draw closer to God, 2) draw closer as a family, and 3) realize how messed up our priorities can sometimes get. In the next month, I will post more little blogs about how that is coming along!
For the rest of you reading out there, we encourage you to do the same. Take time away from your normal, everyday, unnecessary routine activities, and use the time to spend with God and family. We have big goals for our family over this month, and also for the year. What about you?
