It is 2019 and I can hardly believe this is my first post in three years. I woke up this morning another year older and realized how thankful I am just to be alive. I don't know about you, but my heart is filled with gratitude! I thank God for His many blessing, and for allowing me to see another year and to celebrate another birthday.
As you well know, each new year brings with it new challenges and all sorts of adversity. Challenges and adversity are curve balls designed to thwart us, knock us off the paths God has designed for us to follow and put an end to our hopes and dreams. Therefore, the question becomes, how do we prepare for the curve balls that most certainly will come our way this year?
My friends, the answer to that question is to walk with God each and every day of our lives. Understand beloved, we are naturally cut off from God because of our sinful nature. Walking with God daily allows us to connect with God and spiritually commune with Him, learn of Him and grow in the Lord. In Micah 6:8 it is written, "He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?" (NRSV)
Each week I will write a post to give us guidance, and encouragement to help us begin each day walking with the Lord. Make plans now to go on this journey with me and let us walk daily with God together. Tune next week as I give you golden nuggets from Scripture that will help us all survive the curve balls of life in 2019.
