Happy Monday! We are well into the new year. How are you? It has been a rough week or weeks for many of us. My family has been sick and is still working through all of it. Friends even through the hard times we can be full of hope!
Life is hard! Can I get an amen? Okay, I said it so now let’s move on to the good news.
One thing that I need every day is the peace of God.
It is so easy to have peace and hope in the good times. But oh in the bad, peace is hard to find.
Proverbs 23:18, “There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.”
First, stop thinking so much!
I tend to overthink everything. I have to remind myself to stop thinking so much on a daily basis.
Second, if you need help, ask!
I am terrible at asking for help. I have always been good at figuring things out on my own. However, I find when I ask for God’s help, things work out so much better.
Third, start your day with God!
I can’t tell you how much better my day goes when I take time to spend with God each morning. Even if I only read one Bible verse and say a quick prayer, it sticks with me the rest of the day.
Start your new year off right! Be a person that remains hopeful no matter what. Look for the good in things. Don’t try to go it alone. Ask God to help you throughout your day.
Stay hopeful!
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13).
