Here we are. in a brand new year. A year of what? New experiences? New additions to our family. Or perhaps a new tragedy.
Well, we hope we don't have that last one this year. But while we go through this year, we can have peace about what it may bring. Bad or good. I believe that the best way we can do that is to be in God's Word every day. Consider this:
Joshua 1:8-9 ESV
8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
If we don't take the time to get into God's Word, how can we know it? God has given it to us for reasons. Do you know what they are?
They are to:
Show us the way to Him,
So that we know right from wrong
To Learn of His goodness
To Walk with Him
To teach others
These are just a few. But as our new year goes on, and if we listen to what He is saying to us through His word, then the things that happen that may not be what we want to happen but will teach us to depend on Him through those times.
Thanks for coming by, Friends. God bless you and yours
