Happy New Year! New Years Resolution - Trust in God

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

    Happy New Year to each and everyone of you! I pray that this year brings positive changes, spiritual maturity and growth, knowledge and understanding in the things of the Lord, blessings beyond measure and so much more!

    Every year that approaches, you will find that this is the time people want to make drastic changes in their lives. They have a bunch of goals and dreams they want to accomplish each year. But how many of us follow through with our goals? How many of us actually are successful in accomplishing these goals? Statistics show that we rarely accomplish all of these goals however we accomplish a few or some of them.

    This new year, 2014, I urge you to make resolutions concerning your relationship with the Lord. I urge you to
, more than anything, to put your trust in Him. There is no greater freedom in life than trusting God and letting Him direct your path. To truly give up control and let His will manifest in your life, is a process that is easier said than done. Also, it's not something that happens over night. It's a process that entails reconditioning your mind. It all starts in the mind. As Paul states, you have to be transformed by renewing your mind, Romans 12:2.  Your mindset is the first hurdle you have to get over to start trusting God. In fact, you will find that in accomplishing your goals, you have to firstly change your mindset. That is the only way you can truly be successful.

Let's make this a great year as we learn to trust God in our day to day lives. Let's learn to let go and let God. 

Be encouraged my brothers and sisters. God bless you!
