Hey Everyone,
I thought it would be interesting if we all shared which verse(s) is/are really at the forefront of our minds as we all dive into 2010.
I can say personally that I usually pray up to the new year asking God to reveal a single purpose, direction or mindset that He'd like me to have for the new year; kind of like a "reset" of the mind to get myself back on track with his plan/will.
The verse for this year (and YES!.. I do have a post it of this on my computer at work..hahaha) is Matthew 6:33. I believe since God knows my needs, desires, thoughts, strengths, weaknesses, temptations, and concerns.. I could go on, but I'll stop there.. he has given this verse to to meditate on. Jesus is speaking to his disciples about not worrying about the things of this world, but to set their minds on the kingdom of the Lord and all these things will be provided/taken care of.
"But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well."
I'd love it if we ALL shared something on this post to start the new year off like my email stated. Its simple.. Go ahead.. Don't be shy.. It only takes a minute.
Who knows..your post may just be what someone else in our group needs to read :)
