Having your best year begins by putting God first and intentionally seeking His Kingdom in every area of your life. It is important to understand where you have been, honestly evaluate where you are, and prayerfully determine where God wants you to go. Spiritual growth must become a priority rather than something we pursue only when we have extra time. As we seek Jesus, obey His direction, and align our plans with His purposes, happiness becomes a by-product of a life centered on Him. Take time to dream, plan, and ask God how you can better prioritize your relationship with Him throughout the year. Consider what God is showing you today and respond to any conviction, challenge, or commitment He is calling you to make.
The root of all rejection is misplaced identity. God wants to take your rejection and turn it into redirection. Trusting in God protects us.
