Seasons!

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heaves:” (Ecclesiastes 3: 1). We are nearing the end of the year. Now is the time when we are thinking about New Year’s Resolutions. I make a New Year’s Resolution every year. For example, one of which includes losing some weight. I can remember a time in my life when I could not gain weight but now it is quite the opposite. The main problem; I like food! I love sweets especially chocolate. I digress! 

We make resolutions but do we follow through? We have great intentions and maybe we do follow through but is this really what we need to focus on? 

One resolution that is definitely the most important one of all is to draw closer to God. How do we this? For one, I believe God calls us to stay in His word, which is a struggle when we live in a world full of distractions. I can tell you that the rewards are great! Another way to draw closer to God is to spend time in prayer. Prayer time does not have to be a time on our knees although that is not a bad idea, it can be a time when we say a prayer under our breath or a time in the morning where we say a quick prayer of thanksgiving. I don’t know about you, but I need to talk to God throughout the day. I cannot make it without Him. 

Make God the main focus of your mind and heart in the New Year! Take a few minutes to listen to “King of My Heart” by Steffany Gretzinger.
