Can you believe it? I'm turning a year old again! Haha! 2017 was one heck of a year! The challenges just kept on coming and my faith was tested so may times last year and I'm so happy to have a new start this 2018!! I really feel like this year is going to be one of the best years yet. Okay, fine. I don't feel it but I'm claiming it to be!! Not just for me of course but also for you who is reading this!
I'll give you one good reason why this year is going to be the best year, yet. The color of the year is Purple and it's my favourite color and I don't really know how that relates to each other but still!!! Haha! :)
Anyway, for my claims to become a reality, it would require a lot of faith and prayer and let me start with the first thing I'm praying for this year:
A DEEPER relationship with God.
I don't know what it is that I'm still looking for but I feel a lack that is unexplainable when it comes to my relationship with Jesus. I know I have a relationship with Him but I felt like before the start of this year God was trying to speak to me by telling me to read His word and get to know Him deeper. I began a few months back but never really got into reading the whole Bible (because I get easily distracted. haha!) but I'm going to intentionally make it my priority this year!
My Visa renewal.
My visa won't expire until next year but I plan on renewing it this year so that I can go home in December to spend Christmas and New Years with my family and I'm really going to pray hard on this one! Pray with me? :)
More travels, hikes and roadtrips.
You know people think that if you travel you have lots of money and you have to earn a lot in order to do so. One thing I've learned from the Kiwi's is that travelling need not be expensive. Kiwis are very practical people and their joy comes in the simplest of things. The good thing about this country is that they do not charge anything - as in zero - when you go to their awesome beaches and parks. It's also best to pack your food since you'll never know if there's going to be a dairy nearby and it saves you money too! In 2017, I got the opportunity to travel with friends and I will always thank God for spontaneous trips! <3
To go to Hillsong Church.
This is a bit impossible for me at the moment since the trip to Aussie would cost me more than $2k but still claiming it. Haha! :P
My future partner.
To everyone who has been telling me to open up my heart and get to know people and to trust again, and not push people away, I hope you're happy that I've included this on my list this year. Haha! Also, I hope you'll all stop bugging me about this because this is not something that you force to happen but it's something that comes in God's perfect timing!!
To be honest, the pressure was so strong when I was back home but here in New Zealand it's different e. (O.A. Haha!) I have this mentality that I feel like Beyonce when she said all the women who are independent throw your hands up at me. Haha! Yeah, it would be nice to have someone but nah if it's the wrong one. So again, chill lang kayo friends. Haha! :P
Alright so that wraps up my list! There are others that I didn't include cuz it's going to be a long as blog if I'm going to do so. Haha! If there's something that you would like me to pray with you about just send me a text or an e-mail and hopefully I'd get to read it and not forget to reply because I have a habit of reading messages and forgetting to reply to them! Haha! Kidding! Seriously tho, text me. :)
xoxo, Gennin
