Now we are in the first week of another year - 2011. Many of us enjoyed 2010, but some of us are GLAD it's over! In either situation, we have been given a new year, a fresh start, to make some more changes and to follow our purpose for living.
I know, we get tired of hearing about resolutions... in fact the other day I read that most new year's resolutions only last several weeks. We are such a "people of habit" that change requires a lot of work; but when we are tired of the insanity of falling short of our goals, we - on purpose - make the decision to change for the better.
You might have very few responsibilities in your life..or you may have a lot: marriage, children, work, parents, school... the list can seem endless. However, if we will determine to take life 'one day at a time', that choice can help us manage and be in control of our schedule - instead of it controlling us.
I encourage you to consider this principle found in the Bible, Psalm 131:1 ...I don’t concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.
Also, think about this from Psalm 46:10 ... He says, “Be still, and know that I am God."We can breathe easier and rest better knowing that God doesn't expect us to have everything under control; God is very capable and willing to take care of you and me in matters that we cannot control by our prayers, knowledge or physical ability.
You do your best to live a life that seeks after the Lord and is willing to follow His counsel and you can expect Him to honor and help you in every situation!
So RELAX, and enjoy life in 2011.
