Happy 2018! And Happy Monday!! This year will be filled with all kinds of joyful Mondays, so just get ready! A new year is technically just another day on the calendar, but the thought of turning over a fresh set of days and months always provides us with a sense of renewal.
Resolutions are great, but they're more powerful with a focus on renewing yourself spiritually. Don't leave God out of the resolutions. I made a resolution last year to finish writing my book after 13 years of piddling with it. For the first time in those 13 years, I can honestly say that I focused my prayers more on what God wanted to do with my writing, rather than what I wanted to do with it.
When goals are centered on God and moving with His purposes, they become much more manageable. So, Happy New Year! Enjoy 2018. I pray you get the much needed fresh start, and that God accomplishes amazing things through you.
