Where Are You At Today?

Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful.Mark 4:18-19

Where are you today? I don’t mean your physical address but where emotionally and spiritually are you? Are the cares of this world weighing on your heart?

Usually with the start of a new year comes an opportunity for a fresh start, a clean slate and a chance to right wrongs and let things go. It is a good break, so to speak, to be able to make up your mind to be different and change things up for the good. Call it a resolution or whatever you like, but 2020 ushered in a new era not only a new decade but the feeling of having new hope. 

New beginnings are terrific. You purpose in your heart you are not going to allow things that drug you down or took you away from your spiritual growth to take root in your life again in the new year. You yank up ugly junk by the roots and plant new seeds of forgiveness, peace, joy, love, caring, dying to self, sharing, and kindness. Let the bad stuff that got you nowhere go and strive to reach a new level with the Lord guiding you. 

PRAYER: I am so grateful for a new page on the calendar and a new chance to have the opportunity to turn things around and live for kingdom purposes. I trust in you Lord and I resist the devil and he has to flee. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
