Happy New Year, of course. Resolutions? Check. Bucket list? Check. Time to get a move on? COVID still says, no, not yet. But that doesn’t mean you can’t begin to plan your resolution or adapt a resolution that fits your current life. Little arms and legs want to go go go, but we ought to have the right gear to get stuff done this year. It would be better to begin with the right gear.

For I the Lord your God will hold your right hand, saying to you, fear not; I will help you – God promises in Isaiah 41:13. Me, I believe that if I let God be in my ambition in life, and allow family and those I call friends inspire me, then they will learn from my ambition; the God in my ambitions cannot fail. I have been seeing more and more that faith in God is the best gear.

As we embark on the new year laying plans and making memories we should strive to include the one that puts our steps in order so our plans come out shiny and bright.

For newer believers or for those who want to know why people who believe in Jesus Christ; It may be a good time to consider picking up and opening a few pages of the Bible; asking questions and having discussions about what you’re reading among your brothers and sisters in Christ, of your churches. The opportunities we have with fresh energy we get from ringing in each new year presents an opportunity to dive into something new.

Whatever it is you have on your new year radar, bring Christ with you; the necessary part of any year. Happy new year! May you find the blessings and peace of God in 2021.
