As 2019 disappears in the rearview mirror, 2020 slowly peaks over the horizon. At this moment, you are probably debating on which New Year’s resolutions to pursue and how you plan to be successful in seeing them through. It’s something we experience every January 1.
Although the New Year will usher in exciting challenges and new goals, it’s important to think about how God has made you new through the giving of His Son, Jesus. Seeking to better yourself physically and mentally can certainly bring honor to God. However, looking to renew your heart and chase after the things of God must always remain at the forefront of our minds.
