New Year’s Resolutions. Goals. Promises. This is the time of year that many of us contemplate what we would like to do differently. Oftentimes, these goals tend towards working out more, eating healthier, or possibly spending less time on social media. Those are all great things for your physical body and mental health, but what about your spiritual health?
As a busy mom, I understand that there are always things that need to be done. I encourage you in this new year to find a few minutes each day and spend them reading the word of the Lord. Put aside your to-do list and make God a priority. Spending time reading scripture each day gives us the opportunity to hear and see the Lord, to encounter Jesus. The profound impact this will have on your life is immeasurable.
I hope you will join me and so many others this year in dedicated daily scripture time. Will you be starting a Bible in a Year Plan? Listening to a podcast or the Bible App? Delving deeper into a specific book of the Bible? Whatever it is that you choose, I pray that we can all find time in this new year to slow down and spend more intentional time with the Lord each day and love like Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:16–17 (ESV): All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
