Megan's prayer: SONICFLOOD's "I Want to Know You (In the Secret)"

On January 1st, 2008, I made two New Year’s resolutions. I normally don’t, probably because I don’t want to set myself up for failure, but on that day I had two resolutions I was confident I would succeed at.

The first one was that I wanted to give up boys for the year. Having just gotten out of a relationship, and still being upset with the entire male gender, I thought it would be easy. A year without crushes, dates, and boyfriends.

The second one was just as straightforward. I wanted to rediscover my relationship with God. I felt like I was at a point that I went to Mass, but not much more than that. I desperately wanted to know God.
2008 Resolution:
I want to know you.
Looking back a year later, I realized I failed miserable at the first one. But luckily the complete failure of the first resolution helped me in my second resolution. My relationship has been one of the driving forces that has helped me to rediscover my faith, and to deepen the relationship with God. Although better, it’s not near perfect yet, which is why I have a similar resolution for this year.
2009 Resolution:
I want to know you more.
