Do you like adventures? Wanna go somewhere no one has ever been before? You can....for free!
No one has ever been in 2008 before...and you're going there....soon!!
A whole new year ahead....a chance to start again....a time to change direction or set a firmer resolve to continue the direction you're already going.
Sometimes we get so caught up in the past...thinking of regrets we have...things we would have or even should have done differently....that we forget to look expectantly to the future.
I like what Anne Shirley said in the movie Anne of Green Gables...."Tomorrow is fresh with no mistakes."
The new year is fresh with no mistakes, too. Oh, it's inevitable that mistakes will be made...but trust that God will bring you through those just as He always has. Let go of things in the past that hold you back and step into the new year with joyful anticipation at what lies ahead. Look with new eyes at those around you....love more, dream more, serve more, pray more, be thankful more, and follow God more.
Abandon yourself to God.
I love that phrase! When I looked up the word abandon, I found that one of the definitions is: to give oneself completely to
Give yourself completely to God this coming year.
There's no greater adventure...no greater fulfillment.
No greater way to live.
Try it...you'll see!
"...Offer yourselves as a living sacrifice to God, dedicated to his service and pleasing to Him..." Rom. 12:1
