New Years are filled with possibilities, hopes, and dreams. We don’t know what the New Year will bring. The future is unknown. But I can imagine there will be some of these experiences.
- There will be celebrations. Remember to thank God as the giver of every good thing.
- There will be challenges. Ask God to give you the courage to take the leap of faith.
- There will be sorrows. Trust God to walk with you through the valley.
- There will be victories. Walk humbly as the Spirit allows.
- There will be defeats. Rest in God’s grace. He does not measure you by your accomplishments.
- There will be sin. Confess it and receive God’s forgiveness.
- There will be new people entering into your life. Offer the hospitality of Jesus.
- There will be people who move out of your life. Remember that Jesus is your constant companion.
- There will be interruptions to your plans. Embrace the moment and ask God about the opportunity he is providing.
- There will be broken people you will encounter. Offer compassion.
- There will be people who disagree with you and are hostile towards you. Love them.
- There will be temptations that come your way. Open the Scripture to unleash God’s power to overcome.
- There will be busy days. Create margin to get adequate rest.
- There will be slow days. Resist the urge to busy yourself.
Whatever this New Year brings, I pray for God’s richest blessings. Thank you for being part of this community. I look forward to what God will accomplish.
