At
the Threshold
of
a New Year
|
| |
| At the beginning of
each year, the majority of us make plans which change our lives. We
set goals and work on them with enthusiasm. But as time goes by, many
of these goals and purposes pass us by, to the point that we forget
about them, even though we had promised to keep them with all of our
hearts. |
| I think that the best way to start
a year is to stop and consider those things that God wants from us.
He has planned a way that will take us to total maturity |
| One of God's purposes for us is
to share with us each day. For us to come into His presence face to
face with the assurance that we are clean from sin. |
| Daily communion with God is a
private matter which no one knows about He talks to us through His
Word and we respond in prayer (I Corinthians 11:28-32; Hebrews 13:15). |
| The second important purpose that
God has for us is to reach out toward those who do not know Him (Acts
1:8). If Jesus Christ came to save the lost, it is our responsibility
to show other women how to be reconciled with God. |
| And lastly, we are called to be
a blessing to other women. We have the responsibility to help them
mature, encourage younger women to surpass the limits of their own
abilities and let the love of God move them to good works. |
| It is my prayer that the Holy
Spirit helps all of us to place our eyes on Him who is the GOAL, knowing
that He is with us to encourage us and to help us reach our desires. |
