Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore! Psalm 105:4
At some point in your life you will have a task that is more than you
can do on your own. Currently, my mother is having to clean out my grandmother’s
house of belongings so it can be sold within a month. It’s a bigger project
than my mom can do alone. Fortunately, there have been many family and friends
who have stepped up to offer their assistance. Thankfully she will meet the
deadline, thanks in part to everyone’s help!
I know the New Year is all about changes and setting goals and
resolutions. It may sound like a lot of hype, but it IS a fresh start. If you
are like me, you want to make some changes in your life for 2018. Those goals
you have set for yourself are probably bigger than you can do on your own. Without
some help, you will fall back into the normal routine of life and say….well
there is always next year. Let’s work together to hold our commitment to the
goals and resolutions we’ve set by calling upon God for help. Does God really
care about the bad habits we want to break, does He care that we want to change
our spending habits, will God really help us? You bet He will, and what better
person to call upon than your creator.
Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I
will strengthen you, Yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous
right hand. Isaiah 41:10 God wants what’s best for you! When you identify
those areas of your life that need some “tweaking”, He acknowledges your
willingness to do better and will supply you with everything you need to be
successful in your goals for 2018! He NEVER gives up on you, so don’t give up
on Him. Call upon the Lord for help and He will be there 24/7.
The struggle is real to fall back into temptation to live the life you’ve
known for years. Change is necessary if you want to feel better about yourself and
be viewed by God as obedient to your commitments. Give Him a call today, by
prayer, and ask for His help in keeping those commitments for this year of
change. God bless!
