Well, it has been a little while since posting. I took some time off during the holidays, which was much enjoyed. There is absolutely nothing like the blessing of spending time with family. As I get older, I realize more and more how precious that is.
So, I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas. I am always humbled when I stop and think about why JESUS had to come. It really, simply boils down to this - He came to redeem me. Yes, He came to redeem all men but I wasn't worth it. However, He felt I was and He came.
With that thought, I wanted the first post I made this new year to express my prayer for the upcoming 2018. My prayer for 2018 is that "We all seek to do His good will."
Not a single one of us will go through the next 363 days without having to make some tough and difficult decisions. Not a single one of us will go through the remainder of this year without having to really fight some tough urges and desires. Not a single one of us will go through the next twelve months without having moments of wondering what we should do next.
So, how do we make those decisions? How do we fight those urges? How do we determine the next step? By asking GOD to give us wisdom and discernment, to strengthen us and fight for us, to direct us. We can overcome everything that may come our way this year if we will allow GOD to work in us, for us, and through us. We do that by seeking His will, then, by doing His will. And, that is my prayer for 2018.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
