“Do not call to mind the former things,
Or ponder things of the past.
19 “Behold, I will do something new,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?…” – Isaiah 43:18-19
Surrender your life to the Lord and be transformed into a brand new you for a brand new year! Let Him redeem your past to use for His glory and allow your life to be transformed to one that is full of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. While the rest of the world rages around you in turmoil, you will know these fruits and serve as a shining light to others who will want to know more because of your example.
Don’t forget where you’ve been because you must hold appreciation from where God has delivered you from… but don’t focus so much on your past that you miss what God is doing new just for you!
Happy New Year and God Bless You!
