8 WAYS TO VIEW THE COMING YEAR : NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

(By Filoiann Wiedenhoff, Christian New Years Resolutions/justbetweenus.org)




Here are eight ways to view the coming year and every year as a year of:


1. New Beginnings

Start out the new year with a fresh point of view to new experiences, memories, and blessings, having an open mind and heart to wherever the Lord may take you, with full assurance and confidence that He is with you (Matt. 28:19-20).



2. New Possibilities

There is no limit to what God can do in your life; nothing is impossible with God. God opens doors that no man can shut and closes doors that no man can open. With God the possibilities are endless when we live according to His will (Phil. 4:13).



3. New Plans

Every year is a new season. Pray about what God has planned for you and be willing to walk by faith in obedience as you follow His leading. Remember that His plans are always for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope (Jer. 29:11-13).



4. New Purpose

God always has a purpose for what you will experience. He has a reason for what He allows in your life, and through it you can trust Him completely (Prov. 1:3-5).



5. New Provisions

The Bible says not to worry about tomorrow for tomorrow has enough worries of its own. Trust in your Heavenly Father who knows everything you need, who is your God and your Provider. He is faithful and He will do it (Matt. 6:25-34).



6. New Growth

When we are willing to let go and let God work in and through us, He will always stretch us and grow us. Continue to grow in His Word and your relationship with Him. Pray for God to mold you and make you pliable in the Potter’s hand. Then watch the Master Craftsman work on His masterpiece - you!



7. New Wisdom

With new experiences and lessons come new wisdom and insight. Make it a priority to seek out wisdom as a hidden treasure or fine gold. Proverbs says that wisdom will set a garland of grace on your head and she will present you with a crown of splendor (Prov. 4:7-9).



8. Renewed Peace

As you go through new experiences and new adventures, good or bad, I encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Christ. He will give you rest and peace because He is our peace and He loves you and cares for you deeply (John 16:33).

Let us give thanks to the Lord for getting us through another year as we look forward to what He has in store for us. He is faithful and worthy to be praised!

My New Years Resolution is:

1)-To stay better connected with my family members and friends. Friends and loved ones are dying and passing away left and right and I do not want to leave anything unsaid. Inspite of a lot of our differences I want to make sure that they all know that they are loved by me.

2)-My other New Years Resolution is to lose about 10 pounds. Age and not enough exercise is sure packing on the pounds to my
behind. My hubby loves the extra weight but I don't.

Great post Phoebe and Happy New Year to you Sweetheart, take care! 

P.S. Happy New Year to all!


Love Tam
