What Will the New Year Mean to You?

As we begin another year we look forward to another year of what we can accomplish in the Lord. We look forward to the challenges that the Lord will give us and how we can accomplish what we need to do to further His kingdom.

It is easy get bogged down with the “big things” and miss the little things. We need to make sure that no matter what stage of our walk we are at that we move forward to grow more Christlike each and every day. We don’t want to wake up next New Year’s day and not have grown spiritually. It is a walk. A journey.

In that journey we don’t arrive until we receive our ultimate reward. So why should we be satified with the status quo? Why should we be content with anything less than the Lord wants for us?

The Lord wants us to grow stronger in our walk so that we will be fully equipped for the work that he has for us.

I challenge each person who reads this with wanting more and more of what God has for us. Be hungry to grow and be strengthened in your walk and don’t be satisfied with mediocrity since the Lord wants excellence in every aspect of your life.

Push forward in your knowledge of the Word. Strive to pray harder and be more available to people that need your love. We spend so much time doing “stuff” that we miss out on ministry opportunities like just being there for someone who needs encouragement or just an understanding ear.

Make this your best year by growing more in the Lord than ever before!
