New Years

New Years Hope

The start of a new year naturally brings thoughts of resolutions and fresh goals. What do I want to achieve this year? How can I bring positive change to my life? Where do I envision myself a year from now? These are meaningful questions, but let’s not overlook the value of pausing to reflect on the year we’ve just completed.

“Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life.” – Deuteronomy 4:9

As we look back on 2024, here are some thoughtful questions to consider. They can spark meaningful conversations with loved ones or serve as journaling prompts. Taking a moment to reflect helps us appreciate the past before stepping boldly into the future

Reflecting on the past year: What aspect of God’s character did I come to understand more deeply?

Who did I grow closer to this year?

When did I feel especially proud of myself?

When did I demonstrate courage?

How did I grow spiritually, professionally, and relationally?

What new experience brought me joy?

How did I learn to rest and recharge?

Where did I see God’s presence, even in challenging moments?

What is a fun or cherished memory that stands out?

What positive habits or rhythms did I start that I want to continue in the coming year?

Our prayer for you is that the year ahead is filled with joy and growth as you journey with Jesus. May the lessons of 2024 inspire and strengthen you for what lies ahead. Happy New Year!
