“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” 2nd Timothy 4:7 - 8 NIV.
As we look forward to a new year in 2009, and the excitement of what God has in store for each and everyone of us. We need to first reflect on what God has done in our past, and how he has touched and changed our lives. Over the past year we concentrated on the "Led by the Sprit, to Lead by example", and to allow the word of God to not only be memorized but truly applied in our lives. My question is to you, have we truly depended on God, and have you applied his word in your life. So many times in my life I have placed limits by my faith to what God can do in my life. Have you placed limits to what God can do in your life?
If you truly want to see your family saved and hearts changed, then we must sincerely pray for God to truly change them. But first we must allow God to truly change our attitude and perspective in our lives. We must wholeheartly give God everything, and truly trust in him.
So for this year of 2009. Are we going to allow God to truly use us, to change our attitudes, our life styles, and to continue to press on as Paul wrote in 2nd Timothy.
