January Goals

January 23, 2015

I know it’s nearly the end of the month, but since I spent so long reflecting on my long-term goals for this year, it’s taken me a while to get these listed. I have been working on this list behind the scenes though. 🙂

This is how I’m breaking my BIG YEARLY GOALS {honor, prayer, family, rest, write, home} into small steps each month:

Note to Micah {honor}
Monthly encouragement note {honor}
Date with Zianne {honor/family}
Pray to the Spirit to show honor {honor}
Make prayer journal {prayer}
Write in prayer journal {prayer}
Record prayer answers {prayer}
Prayer for Zianne and Baby #2 {prayer}
Sentence prayers in car {prayer}
Memorize Romans 8:9-11 {honor/prayer}
Make list of date ideas {family}
Date night with Micah {family}
Clean out recipe binder {family}
Read one book for fun {rest}

About Jen Russum

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
