HAPPY NEW Yl:AR! NOW WHAT?

As we look forward to a new year, so many questions and emotions arise as to what lies ahead. We wonder if our finances and living conditions will remain stable, will we see world issues resolved, will our politicians ever agree on anything?! Then we make our list of new year’s resolution, which we don’t need to worry about because we never follow through with them anyway! Whew! That’s a lot to think about, but why? We aren’t in control of these things, not that we shouldn’t be aware of what’s going on in our world, but focusing on the “One” who is in control of it all and trusting in Him to give us the answers we are seeking should help us to find some peace and rest in the new year. There will always be mountains to move and bumps in the road throughout the journey, but the stronger our faith and the more we focus on our Heavenly Father the easier it becomes to move those mountains and get over those bumps along the way. So, instead of feeling anxious about the new year, renew yourself in Him and enjoy everyday He has, and will, bless you with.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come, the old has gone, the new is here!

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, may we remember to give our concerns and worries of things we cannot control to you. Only You know what lies ahead of us in the new year and we know when we are focused on You, that You will see us through each new day. In Your precious name we pray. Amen
