Where did 2015 go?! Life goes by so quickly and how many times have you said…I MEANT to lose weight, I meant to get in a Bible Study, I meant to call my parents, visit Florida or start exercising. The years are going by way too fast! Only you can make sure you start a new habit and at the end of 2016, you’ll be so glad you did!

What a amazing 2015!  I can look back and see some amazing moments in the year where God spoke,  healed,  and disciplined me when and where I needed it.  It’s a great place to be in your walk to know and allow the Lord to have His way. Some of us are and have been there for some time.  Now it is time for us in this place of Contentment.  Time for us to move to a place of confidence in contentment and say “here I am send me”. Myself and others alike.  We are entering the time of year where we make resolutions to change things from last year or things from past years.  Maybe it’s to loose weight,  pay off a bill,  or to fix something that’s been broken (door, car, or marriage).  These things and others will take us down a path,  road,  and journey that we don’t necessarily want to go down. Luke 17:11 says that Jesus went through Samaria and Galilee on His way to Jerusalem.  In Jesus’ time. Jews would add a day or two journey to their trip by going around these cities. Not the best of places to go. Jews and Samaritans didn’t get along. This route was filled with danger. …

Another year is coming to a close. For those of you who had a great year, thank God. For those of you who struggled with health problems, loss of loved ones or battled each day just to keep your head above water, thank God. Thank Him that He’s never left you, that He’s mending broken hearts and healing sicknesses. God’s eyes are constantly on you and your situation. Praying that 2016 is a wonderful joy filled, peaceful year. Be blessed!

Fear is Satan’s weapon to keep you stuck like a deer in the headlights. When fear rules, you can’t do what God has called you to do, you can’t hear His voice, and you can’t walk in faith. Faith and fear can’t co-exist. Fear takes you straight to worry and faith covers you with peace! Which one do you choose? (This is a no-brainer!)

Never underestimate a person with a prayer and a plan! When you go to the Father and talk to Him, HIS plan begins to develop in YOUR heart. With a prayer and a plan, you can take on the world! You have the backing of Heaven and it doesn’t get any better than that!

Failure is just an event, a moment in time, but it is never who you are! You may have failed once, twice, many times but it still doesn’t define you. It’s something that happened in your life but it’s not you! It’s important to see yourself as an overcomer, a winner, somebody special! Despite the failures you’ve experienced, you still have a life to live…a destiny to walk into! Never let thoughts of failure shape you. Abundant life belongs to you!
