New Year, New Hope, Renewed Vision

Well how is your New Year of 2016 going so far? Have you stayed firm and comitted to the task at hand or have you found yourself giving up because of the difficulty and hard work it takes to finish what was started?  Feeling a bit discouraged from falliing short of your New Years goals?  Perhaps its a good time to re-examine those goals, along with hopes and dreams to see if anything could be out of order. Perhaps you lost your focus on Christ. Colossians 3:2 says "Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth". Maybe you turned your gaze onto other things, wants or desires not of God, and forgot your purpose. Well, be encouraged your not alone, we have all been thru this at some point and time in our lives, and its at these times of frustration, trial and testing that we discover where we really are, and asking God to help get us back on track to moving our hearts once again towards Him.
