Sometimes unexpected things happen that can change our lives in wonderful ways and sometimes in painful ones too. But no matter what happens this year, I hope you know that you’re going to figure it out (whatever “it” may happen to be or mean for you). As a Christian, I’m constantly learning (and in recent years) have accepted that God’s already ordered my steps. Even steps that I haven’t always enjoyed or understood. But regardless, I know that I’m going to figure things out and that I don’t have to do it aimlessly or alone because my God knows what’s next for me, what’s best for me, and has already set things in motion. I’m not sure what you’re seeking to accomplish this year, what you’re working on, what you’re praying for, or what your heart’s desires may be, but I pray that you connect and partner with God as you figure things out and that you allow Him to move in your life in the most exciting, encouraging, and intentional ways. Happy New Year and God bless.
As we approach the start of a brand-new year, I can’t help but think about the process of setting new goals to accomplish. For some, the start of a new year is an opportunity to tackle new goals and resolutions that have been set. For others, a new year can feel like a time of uncertainty. And while I believe in setting deadlines to accomplish specific and measurable goals, marking calendars for set plans, and having different things in mind that you would like to accomplish in a year, the reality is that life is full of uncertainty.
