There’s much to be said for the optimism that surrounds this holiday season! In spite of what’s going on in the world around us, people everywhere choose to push the cares aside and enjoy the company of those dearest to them. Then there’s the fresh excitement and vision for the new year! Everyone is making resolutions, setting goals, planning and preparing for this glorious new beginning. The truth is, if we want to maintain the enthusiasm, and keep our plans from derailing along the way – we had better make sure the Lord is directing our goals! As you set time to spend in His presence, and listen for His voice, be confident that His plans are always to prosper you and lead you into success. With the Lord leading and guiding you through each endeavour, you can be sure He will provide the strength, wisdom, and provision you need to overcome, with joy! So choose to delight yourself in the Lord this year. As you give Him first place in your life, you will find failure is not your portion, as He fulfills the desires of your heart.
