How will you play out this year?

How will you play out this year?

This is a new year, a new chance to change your life, set new goals, refocuse, but will you? 

Are you ready to change your ways? God has already prepared you for it but are you prepared? 

Are you ready to make the necessary changes to get you to where you want to go?

At my church we start off the new year with a fast, to clean out our bodies, our minds and we pray so that we may be able to hear God's voice in our lives.

We want to start the new year giving thanks for our blessings and for the upcoming blessings that we know he will bring.

So for 8 days we eat only vegetables and water and we go to church every night, (BP before the pandemic, now we stream) 

I choose to only listen to non  secular music and not to watch anything that isn't inspiring. I also choose not to be on social media for these days as I want to be as clean as I can be, I want to hear God's word and for me I can't when there is too much bidding for my attention.

This is a sacrifice that we do once a year to give back and to start the year off right with the right things, giving thanks, being grateful, sacrifice, all for the Lord.


Now some of you will think that's crap and hey, you know what they say about opinions right?  

I don't ask you to believe what I do or in what I believe in, it's a free country and it's all good. This is what gets me through the day...this God, this church, this Bishop, that saved my life. If a flying monkey saved your life and you believe in flying monkeys, good for you! Whatever gets you through your days is great for you! I am all for it! 

This is what gets me through, this gives us the strength we need ...because like Romans 8.28 says:


"It's all working together for your good"

For me this isn't a sacrifice, as I know all that he did in my life, what he continues to do and this is small in comparison.


So let me ask you, what is going to be different from last year? Are you going to do the same things and expect different results? Yeah, in case you didn't know, that's the definition of insanity.

This year don't miss you God moment....because if you're not paying attention you will miss it.


I know I have missed mine a few times. I took my eye off the ball and missed it. I thought my way was better, I didn't have enough faith to hold out, to wait for God.

You can not follow the crowd and expect to have a private meeting with God. No matter what anyone says, pay no mind to them, this is your game, your life, play it your way!


This year don't drop the ball, seize your God moment.

Put God first in everything you do, live righteously and he will give you everything you need.

Here are the 2 easy steps to get through this year:


1 Take advantage of a God moment, act now!


Don't look around, trust your gut, this is your play, listen to the voice inside of you and go for it! 


2 Stay the course 

Don't give up, don't stop believing, don't doubt, know you will win, stay focused.


When you drop the ball don't expect God to pick it up and bring it back to you. That's on you, you did it.

Don't say why didn't this happen or lay blame on everyone but yourself. It's your fumble, deal with it! Then admit it, let it go, give it back to him because even when all hope seems lost.... seconds can change the play of the day. Don't give up, don't lose faith even when it seems dark, even when the storms are coming at you, hold on to that tiny mustard seed of faith, it will get you through.


So today my friends, I am asking you, how will you play out this year? How will you change? Don't just make unresolved resolutions, don't just talk about change, you need to do something, you need to be in the game, not on the sidelines and even if you fall, even if you drop the ball, even if you miss your shot, the game is not over,  there is still time to win the game but only if you don't quit and as I say at the end of every blog….only if you want to...

"Be the change you want to see"

 

"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
