For me, I am currently working on strengthening my patience in God and learning and developing the character to be the best "friend" I can to my small circle of friends and also work on expanding my friendship circle.

God doesn't make mistakes!
Keeping in mind that God IS in control and to not get so stressed at my job, and to not worry so much about my financial situation, also to try harder to follow in "HIS" footsteps....

I have been reading the book of John. Sometimes it helps me to go back to the basic. My daughter and son are in their teens, so I need a better handle of God's word to be able to answer their question about life. Also I have been losing weight myself, its great to feel like your clothes appreciate the fit.country woman said:

I have started a Beth Moore Bible study. I wish I had done one a long time ago!!! It is awesome!
I also need to concentrate on my weight, and my diet. I am a diabetic, and really need to get things unger control!

Beth Moore is just a servant of God, who decided that He had a ministry in mind for her, and she decided to use her talents as a Bible teacher to use. And what a ministry it is!!!

Losing the battle with oxalis
I use language that would make a longshoreman blush, so I've been trying to stop swearing - at least as much as I used to. I still swear too durned much, but it's been cut down to no more than 5x/day (and even less if you don't count what I say when driving! 
)

I just found a new Spirit-filled church, and it is the kind of place I have wanted to worship and fellowship in for a long, long time.
I am asking God for a lifetime partner; one He desires me to have, who will help me to honor and serve Him.
Also, I am beginning to trust Him in tithes again. It is hard, for we are on welfare, and barely make it month to month, but I know He will help when I obey.

I have a few areas I am working on:
1. Shining my sink (this is about housekeeping FlyLady method). But for me, keeping my dishes washed really is helpful.
2. Improving my health.. I want to be able to work out this year, but to start with I am getting my asthma under control because five minutes of walking on the treadmill is giving me an attack. But the goal this year is to be able to walk on the treadmill in my target zone 30 mins five days a week by next December.
3. Similar to number 1 decluttering the home. There is so much extra stuff around here. In April I plan to have a "free yard sale" and give anything left over from that to charity. (If it is good enough for charity.)
4. Improving my daily routines... going to bed on time, getting up on time, eating more than once a day, etc. Basically taking as good care of my self as I would a child under my care. (I tell myself sometimes that since I am a Child of God, I owe it to Him to take care of myself as I would a human child of my own.)

Taming my tongue so that it edifies and doesn't tear down.
Listening for and hearing and doing God's will consistently.
Finding the right balance in my life between all the things I want to be doing and how much time there is.
