It’s been a
long journey.
365 days of
2015 had passed. We are now facing the new beginning of new year, year of 2016.
We have gone through a lot of trials and challenges and maybe you are thinking
that this year would be the same. That is why you get your pen and paper, you
have prayed and write your goals and new years resolution again and you said to
yourself, “I will make this year different than the years passed.”
We all have
fears, we are afraid of failing again. And yes, you are right, we all get tired
of this things, we are tired of thinking what future brings. We have experience
boredom, especially when serving God. If there is no result on what we prayed
for, we give up and we choose to go back to our old lives. God never require us
to run so hard that you will finish the race right away. He even remind us to
rest if we are tired of life. We must learn to stop by, rest in God’s presence
and give it all to Jesus. And when we are ready to run again we could move
forward and slowly by slowly we will continue our walk with God and His people.
I myself was afraid of uncertainty, if everything is out of my control, I
stumble and fall. And one thing I learned, is to depend on God and His
Word. Romans 8:28 says “And we know that
in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been
called according to his purpose.
I know that
we are called with a purpose. God is at work in our lives, and He will do
amazing things this year. Our part is to participate, let us offer our
teachable heart to Jesus. You are not required to do all of the task, God will
help you and He will journey with you. We are called for greater and we are
called for more. Let us allow God to fill us with His love. Let us embrace the
change and let us live for Jesus. For sure our fear will be converted to trust.
We will trust God more this year!
Let’s be
excited and move forward!
