Goals for 2007! Many people make New Years Resolutions but statistics tell us that most of those resolutions don’t last very long. A former student of mine who worked at McDonald’s told me that the first 3 weeks of January they sold more salads than any other time period during the year. The reason was most people made New Year’s Resolutions, but those Resolutions only lasted 3 weeks. After that, it was back to the same old eating habits. Personally, I don’t like to call them Resolutions for they seem to go as soon as they come.

Since I am very goal oriented, I love to set goals. Sometimes those goals don’t come about or sometimes God changes those goals. However, I believe strongly if we shoot at nothing, we are sure to hit it. So let’s shoot for the stars, we may just be able to get off the ground, but at least we will be on our way.

In all of the goals that I set, I want them to be for the glory and honor of God. It is only because of God that I can accomplish anything. God said, “Daryl, without me, you can't do ANYTHING!”

Since God has called us to Eastern Europe, here are 3 ministry goals that I feel the He would have us to attempt for His GLORY:

• Finish the construction of Hope Christian Fellowship Center
• Begin working in the Fellowship Center to share the love of Jesus and teach and train people about God and His word.
• To plant churches in this region, which would include Romania, Ukraine, Hungary, & Slovakia.
  

I don't know exactly how God will choose to work but would you pray that for the Glory and Honor of God, these goals would be accomplished?
