Beyond Ourselves - Setting the pace for the year

 "We made it!" says a close friend of mine after wishing me a new year. If you're reading this now, I'm saying the same to you.

We made it!

It is a new day! In a new month!! Of a new Year!!! Are you excited about it??? I am! It's new season!!! Oh Glory!

And yes, our God is a GOD OF NEW THINGS.

Last year might have been A LOT of things we never envisioned it to be. So many of us had plaaaaannnsss.  

I did. At least, I had thoughts on how I wanted my year to go. Not like that. Not the way it did!

However the outcome of this past year, a new one is upon us and now it's left to us to set things in order for speed and full recovery. 

We might not entirely get back all we lost. But by the end of this year, we should have our mouths filled with songs of thanksgiving on how we have been able to bounce back from situations we never thought possible.

One. It is needful that we trust God for speed and at the same time strength.

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as Eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

- Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

There is strength promised to us in God's word even as we run the race of the year, if we run at the pace of God.

God-given strength is inevitable in us when we run the RACE at His PACE.

Two. Nothing done by ourselves yields perfect results unless committed into the hands of God. The Word of God says:

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

- Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

There goes our text for the first quarter of this year!

This year 2021, we're TRUSTING God. We are exercising FAITH in all our dealings. 

This year, speedy recovery is inevitable for us, for we go in the might of the Lord!

Series Saturdays starts tomorrow. Anticipate Foreign: Faith or fear. It's going to be a longgggg one 'cause it's a huge storyline I have in my head. You're going to love it, I promise. I trust God that you will!

Stay Faithful.♥️
