Because of my commitment to The Everyday Club I didn’t want to miss a single day in January—and believe me, there were some days that I just plain didn’t want to share my faith. 

If you would like to join, please do. Simply state your daily goal and report on it in the comments section every month. Now’s the time to report on how well you did for the month of January. Here’s how I did:
