Heather Meyers gave me the idea for a one-word resolution to use as a new-years resolution. I decided on this word because a certain prayer of mine was answered with the incentive to read Deuteronomy chapter 6. Ever had one of those days when you think He's not hearing you when you pray, especially when you've prayed something over and over...... and over? Me too. 'Tis a lesson you should heed. Try, try again. :) Anyway, I've decided that my one-word resolution, taken from Duet. 6:17-18, shall henceforth be, until I chose a word for 2013....

In essence, my new years resolution is to finish everything that I start, to diligently guard Torah, to be constant in my love, to be patient with those around me, keep forgiving, keep praying, keep hoping,...
So there you have it! Viola!
"diligently guard the commands of YHVH your Elohim and His witnesses, and His laws which He has commanded you. and you shall do what is right in the eyes of YHVH, that it might be well with you...."
For Jerusalem!

PS: Just so you know, this is my favorite song (for today, that is. Tomorrow it'll probably change....)
