A NEW YEAR 2

James 4:13-15 Go to now, ye that say, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: {14} Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. {15} For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

Take time to Think--It is the source of power.
MEDITATE ON THE GOODNESS OF GOD

Some people have never learned to meditate.  Meditation is when you clear your mind of distractions and focus on one important thought. We all think...but sometimes it is just a jumble of thoughts that run through our mind and seem to get tangled up with each other.  Meditation is consciously pushing aside the distractions and focusing.

It is important for a close Christian walk for us to focus our attention on God and clear everything else out of our minds.  When we are able to do this God truly reveals Himself to us and we grow closer to Him as we bask in His goodness.

If we fail to spend time meditating on God, we are robbing our self of much of our power as a Christian.

Set a time to meditate upon the Lord and allow Him to reveal His goodness to you.
