THE REASON FOR EVERY SEASON

New year new you? Isn’t this what we all do at the beginning of the year?  We decide to get in shape, get healthy, and be the best us we can be.

Maybe you are one of the ones excited about the New Year, however I fall on the flipside.  Every year after Christmas it takes me a little while to get going.  I’m not sure what category I fall under, but I know that I am getting on my own nerves. 

This year I have decided to have a new strategy “Christmas all year!”  Isn’t this what we should do?  It’s not just Christmas when we should make Jesus a big deal.  It is everyday that He should be in the forefront of our minds.

So how do you do this?  Begin everyday with Jesus.  Set your alarm 30 minutes earlier.   Before you turn on the TV or check your emails, check in and turn on your life with Jesus.   There are many opportunities for Bible learning with technology.  Find an app and download it.  (Suggested apps: First5, Jesus Calling)

Jesus even did this.  Mark 1:35 very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. 

Don’t neglect the solitary worship with Christ.  It is important to seek Him before your crazy days begins.  He has created a new day for you everyday and He wants you to enjoy it.  He wants to walk through everyday holding your hand.  Seek Him and He will lead you down the path of life. 

2016 is the year to seek Him first everyday. (Matthew 6:33)  You will find that your days become more productive and filled with joy when you make this decision.

Jesus is the reason for every season!


Psalm 118:24 this is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
