Corinthians 5:17 (NLT) - This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
Happy New Year! The media has reviewed all aspects of 2013. People continue to make resolutions for 2014. Several Christian websites even got in on the newness by using this scripture to ring in the New Year. Wipe the old away. Get a second chance, a clean slate. Become a new person. Change. Improve.
I’m right with the pack making plans for change in 2014: projects I want to accomplish, ways I want to improve my life and health, relationships that need work. The list in my head keeps growing and I don’t know where to begin. I am exhausted just thinking about it and feeling a bit panicked.
So this morning I was intentional about trying to calm my heart and thoughts. Deep breath in. Then exhale. I sat with my eyes closed literally trying to slow my heartbeat. In doing so I allowed God to be a part of my planning – to help direct my focus. What does God have planned for me in 2014? Where does God want me to spend my energy?
