There’s no denying it’s been a rough year; one that I am sure we all will remember and one we probably want to forget. But there is one thing thing we should remember and never forget. And that is the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. From the cradle to the grave Jesus Christ sacrificed His life for us so that we could spend eternity with Him – John 3:16.
Jesus left His rightful throne in Heaven, in glory, to be born as a human so that He could experience everything we experience here on earth. He understands our sorrow, our disappointments, our discouragements, our failures, our temptations, our physical and emotional pain. He understands our happiness, our success, He understands it all and nothing surprises Him about us, nothing goes unnoticed. He is the Alpha and Omega – Revelation 22:13.
We don’t know what the new year will have for us. But, be encouraged, God goes before us and He is before us in the future, in 2021. He is sovereign and knows all that will happen next year. As we go into 2021 and we set goal and make plans, invite God into those goals and plans. We make plans but God directs our steps – Proverbs 16:9. Resolve to “Get Hooked” on God’s Word so that when life hits you are anchored in His truths with a Hope that’s steadfast and secure. God is waiting for us to reach out to Him. I encourage you to walk into the new year with Him.
So no matter how rough the waters in the new year become, “getting hooked” in God’s Word and in His truths will anchor us so that the storm may rage but we will stand firm. And let us not forget the birth of Jesus and the sacrifices He made for us and remember the Hope that has come.
