For this new year, my model was.
The Year Doesn’t Change, you have to change. Nothing will change in your life if you don’t decide for yourself to change. You can’t expect January 1st to come and go and your life to change dramatically from day to night just because it’s a new year. If you don’t get up and do something about your life everything will remain the same. And if you have confidence and believe that God is with you at all times, he is there to help you, to give you strength, to guide you through it all. To help you daily. Slowly. Never be scared of what others can do to us.
We can confidently say, ” The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me? Hebrews 13:6
Yes, I have to lose 40 pounds – let me sit around and wait for January 1st of 2016 maybe I’ll be skinny. yeah ok. of course not. I have to work hard to achieve that goal. If I sit around by that time, I’ll be needing to lose 400 lbs. but if I add to my mind that God start great work in my life and his plan is to finish it, He will.
I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6
Don’t let yourself get so into all these resolution promises and forget your life, and your family, and live your happiness. Believe all you can do.
I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13
Yes, make plans, making plans and goals for your life is essential, you need them. Otherwise, you will be confused and disorganized, a complete mess. I love to be organized and clean and have everything in place. That’s just how I am, too bad it doesn’t always work that way. LOL. Don’t let the negativity in life ever bring you down. Always try to smile and be happy. surround yourself with people that will make you smile.
Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
The people that make you upset or the ones that are around you are talking about others, don’t deserve your friendship, most likely they are doing the same behind your back. If you want to live a good life and have a fantastic year, make and surround, you’re self with people you truly love.
Make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace. Colossians 4: 5-6
Pray for your Family and friends and Have a Wonderful New Year 🙂
God Bless!!!!
