Well, it’s been awhile since I have posted, but I am back. I want to wish everyone a crazy and wild Happy New Year 2018! I have been thinking about how to prepare for the new year. There are so many things trying to get our attention to have a better and more productive year. I have even listened to a webinar and signed up for several freebies promising ways to help. I scan the emails and the blogs for anything that I think might help. It is frustrating the amount of time spent in looking and seeking for the one or two things that will help.
I have decided that if I just rest and relax in who I know I am in Christ then I don’t need to look for any more knowledge! This is huge for me as I love to learn and research new things. According to 1 Corinthians 2:16, “”For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” I keep having to tell myself that it isn’t Jesus plus more knowledge. It is Jesus! He is knowledge and wisdom.
So as I start out the new year, I want to be intentional and focused on who I already am! As is stated in one of my favorite verses is 2 Peter 1:3-4, “His divine power has granted to us ALL things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, . . .” I am enough right where I am because of the life of Christ living in me. I don’t have to wonder or be afraid of what this new year will bring. I can trust in the One who has me in the palm of His hands. The One who created something from chaos. The One who continues to remind me that He is enough so then I am enough!
I pray as we welcome in 2018, that we would remember that He is enough and that He will provide! What an incredible year it will be when we rest, receive, relax and share in the life of the One who created all things! Won’t you join me on this crazy and wild journey? Our lives will not be the same!
