Dear God...I have an idea and i think you should consider it...

i make lists. i really like lists. checking things off my list gives me a rush.

i want life to be a checklist:
1. Get rid of my negative attitude-Done
2. Change my eating habits-In Process
3. Be fit-Incomplete
4. Cook all meals for my family-Incomplete
5. Be completely commited in my relationship with God-Done

and then this is my idea for God. Once the things have all been moved to "done" status. I can check them off my list an be done with it. The hardest thing about trying to change is knowing that it will always be some sort of a struggle. I will always be "in process" in one form or another.

i don't completely dig that concept. if i get it right once, why should i keep having to get it right? its not like i'll be bored...there are plenty of things i have to get right in my life. this is just the tip of the iceburg. checking these off my list would allow me to focus on the rest of the muck that lingers deep inside.

i see this as a win win for us and God.

So God, what do you think?
