Hi all,

What are you believing for in 2012?

Welcome everyone to my blog for 2012.

I pray 2012 is a wonderful year for you of blessing and provision.

Fulfilment is a great word! How many of us are totally fulfilled in life and living to our potential?

Here are a few things to do as a follower of Christ which will really help you to be more fulfilled.

* Put the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first (in heart, soul, mind, strength)
* Write down your vision and work toward it. You need to know what you are aiming for in God and in life.
* Live missionally- that means living with the intention of making Christ known here and to the ends of the earth in the way that we live, pray, where we place our finances and our attitude.
* Have positive input into your life (read the Bible more, pray, have good friends, read good books and view positive things on TV or internet)
* Plan to get more informed on the state of world missions, get a copy of the latest Operation World or visit the Joshua Project on the internet.
* Determine to pray for unreached/ least reached people groups.
* Why not go on a short-term mission
* Develop a daily devotional habit

I hope this helps someone, I would be very glad of feedback.
