This year so far for me has been one of chaos, stress, and tough decisions. I have to admit that I have not handled it great and I have honestly wanted to hide in my bed instead of face the world a few times this month. I'm tired, my mind is swimming with the many decisions and issues in my life, and I have had trouble focusing on the daily things I need to accomplish. So far it has not been my year.
It is interesting though because even in all the craziness that has been my year so far, something significant has happened. I have had to completely and fully depend on Jesus to get me through. I am constantly dwelling on His strength and seeking His direction in the struggles that I am facing. At night, I come home and take time to rest in His word and who He is. In the morning, I give my day to Him and face the day relying on Him fully.
Though I have not enjoyed the many difficult challenges I have faced so far this year, I have found strength in leaning on Jesus throughout it. All in all I would say that my year has been pretty good because I am learning to lean on Jesus daily. I hope that this will become a habit that I will continue everyday because I have found that I can face anything when I depend on Jesus.
My wife and my life are on course to change drastically this year and I hope that through the many new changes we will be encountering, I can lean on Christ for everything. Where is Jesus in your life? Is He walking with you daily? Do you depend upon Him for your strength and direction? I hope in this new year you will follow Jesus only. I hope He will lead you to a life of victory as you walk in strength through His guidance. Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
Blessings,
Greg
