Another year, another path.
Every January, I ask the Lord for a personal word and direction for the year ahead. It is one of my favorite times because a new time of adventure unfolds.
This is far from a so-called
"New Year's resolution" but rather an inquiry on what God has for me for the upcoming year.
Yes, we need to ask for our needs. But this particular time is really more about what God (HE) has in mind for me. And being connected to a local church congregation, it is very much in line with the vision given to them by God.
If you have never taken the time to ask God for a specific Word/direction for you.....just do it! Especially at the beginning of a new year.
It sets the tone for our walk with God. It gives us greater purpose and relationship with the Creator.
He loves to reveal His secrets to us. All to our benefit and growth. Being filled with the wisdom of God to overflow. So that we can influence those around us in a godly, positive way.
Maybe this year you find that He has a new door for employment open for you. Or perhaps preparation for a move to a new location. But most importantly, maybe He shows you more of you and what needs to be laid down on the cross, to gain freedom and blessing.
Either way, time spent at the beginning of the year will always be a rewarding moment that lasts and gives.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. James 3:17
If you like, leave comments, questions and prayer needs. I will be glad to and pray and rejoice with you.
That will be all for this time.
Farewell and may the blessings of the Lord overtake you.
