Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord! Psalm 31:24
When a new year rolls around seemingly you may have lofty goals about losing weight, going to the gym, being a better neighbor, joining a Bible study, or journaling and before you know it it is the first of February and you have stalled out. Don’t beat yourself up and just keep pressing forward.
Life is not a race and a big no no is comparing yourself to another. God has made each of his creations unique and with a specific purpose. Maybe you know yours and maybe you are yet to figure it out. Keep getting up, breathing, trying to be a good citizen and helping those around you who seem down and out. Life isn’t just about you but it involves many facets around you.
May I challenge you to not quit. Download the YouVersion Bible app for starters. So much good stuff on it. Set up a date with a friend for coffee or lunch. Wake up daily and don’t dash to turn on the TV or dive into Facebook but be still and read Psalm 1, then Psalm 2, and so forth. Talk to God he is waiting to hear from you.
PRAYER: Today is another day you have made I will rejoice and be glad in it. I will stop trying to be like others and be who you made me to be. Use me Lord to cheer up others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
