Happy New Year

I was never one for New Years Resolutions. They were always promises I made to myself that I never kept up with. They sounded good to do at the time but when the year got into full swing I forgot all about those resolutions. So this year I make no resolutions.

Instead I decide to choose. I choose to:

Love more, Judge less
Smile more, Frown less
Listen more, Talk less
Put my faith in God and not in men
Stop trying to please everyone
Be who God has called me to be
Be a better friend, sister, daughter and leader

The list could go on and on.

But most importantly to be added to this list is that I choose to LIVE. It sounds so strange. The question rolling around in your head is probably 'Aren't you living now?'

My response would be yes and no. When we allow religion to dictate the way we live our lives as opposed to our relationship with God we aren't living. When the rules, regulations and traditions of an organisation dictate how we live that's not living. We live in the freedom of our relationship with Jesus. When He dictates how we live then we are living.

I encourage you today friends to allow Jesus to dictate your life. Follow is leading. At the end of it all it is He that holds your world in His hands. It is God who sees your future. Follow Him with you everything.

I pray that this year we keep focused. That we allow God to be the driver of our vehicle. That we follow His direction and leading. That we avail ourselves to be led by His Spirit and His Spirit only.

Man will fail us but God will never fail.

God has great things in store of us. Lets prepare ourselves to receive them.

God Bless you all. See you soon!
