Finding Hope, Blessings, and Purpose for the Year Ahead
You made it, another Christmas has come and gone and now you turn your eyes to 2025. This time of year is always good for reflection and my encouragement to you is to lean into this time to do just that. If you’re like me you often miss the blessings that God provides as you’re always looking at what is coming ahead.
Just as we took the time to rediscover Christmas last week my prayer is that as the new year is approaching we each take the time to sit and ponder what God did in your life in 2024. I recognize that 2024 may be a dumpster fire for some of you, yet even in the fire there lies rays of hope. We simply have to take the time to search for them.
As we head into another year at The Lion Within Us the plan remains the same – do whatever God calls us to do. That strategy has guided us since conception and we see no reason to deflect now. If that strategy resonates please incorporate that into your plans moving forward.
I pray blessings for you as the ball drops and always remember who is sovereign above all – Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
