Happy New Year everyone!!! I pray that you all entered the new year in great health and joy. It truly is a blessing and a privilege to see another year unfold. With that said, what are you going to make of this year? I know new years resolutions are notorious for being nothing but hype and therefore pretty much a waste of time. But what I'd like to suggest is that you perhaps just plan a week or month at a time.
As I mentioned in my last post, intention is a game-changer, and it's hard to set out your intentions unless you know what it is you want to accomplish. My pastor said yesterday, by leaving your year, your life for that matter, to "whatever happens, happens", you'll accomplish little to nothing.
So this weekend, or whenever you have a free minute, just jot down what you want to accomplish for the following week. If you do this week after week, before you know it, you'll have written the vision for the month, the year. "Write the vision, and make it plain" (Hab 2:2) Don't make it more complicated than it is :)
Ask & act - I heard this phrase today and found it to be quite profound. Asking is as simple as a prayer. Writing your vision is a form of asking God to fulfill what you've declared.
Then there's the act. Again, as stated in the previous post, you won't get anything accomplished without it. It's important to ask beforehand though because that's when you might hear God saying "Don't act". How will you know if you don't ask? Having asked, you'll be more susceptive to the spirit (your gut) directing you.
I believe if we can do these simple things; Ask (pray, plan - write the vision) and act (putting the plan into action while being led by the spirit), I think we're well on our way to making this year spectacular.
I genuinely pray that you all have an amazing year :)
Love & Bless Y'all!
Stay Pretty & Precious,
Peace
