That’s my word for you today. If you’re not happy with who you are or where you are, I pray you have the courage to start again and find out who you are and what you love. I hope you know that it’s never too late to go back and be who you might have always been– your best self (or you striving to be your best self).

2020 is the year to let go and start over. It’s the year to stop the insanity of doing things repeatedly the same old way and expecting each time a different outcome. To change your circumstances, you often need to start with yourself, your attitude, and your outlook.

I read once that prayer doesn’t so much change things as much as it changes me and I change things. I agree to a point. I think that a different you can make for a different outcome.

I still believe above all that real change comes not from changing the outside but from within. The Bible calls it being transformed by the renewing of your mind, which comes from regularly steeping yourself into God and His word.

May we all have the courage to finally reject the old familiar ways that have us trapped and to embrace the new possibilities God has for us in Jesus and to live the adventurous that God planned long ago for us to follow.
