The idea of "New Year, New Me" is everywhere, promising transformation through sheer willpower. But true, lasting change doesn’t come from self-reliance—it begins with surrender to God’s will. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us, "In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." This week, we’ll explore how to set goals that reflect His purpose for every area of our lives, from our careers to our relationships, and everything in between.
In the meantime, consider:
What areas of your life are you relying on your own strength instead of surrendering to God’s will? How can you invite Him into your plans?
As you think about your goals for the New Year, which ones align with God’s purpose for your life? Are there any that need to be reconsidered?
What Scriptures or promises from God can guide and inspire you as you set intentions for the coming year?
