The Year Coming to Close

It is amazing to think that 2017 is now coming to close in a few days. For those who still write checks will have to remember to enter 2018 instead.

I hope that everyone have had a wonderful 2017 that can be remembered with a smile for some time. I am sure we have known someone or more than one that passed away this year. Fortunately no one in my immediate family died which is always good news.

The theme for 2017 has been to press on no matter what has happened this year. Discover more what our purpose and destiny why were created by God in the first place. The everyday grind can get in the way of fulfilling our purpose and destiny. The important thing is to wake up in the morning and ask God to help us fulfill our purposes. In many ways these purposes can happen in small ways. Our lives can be where we wonder if we are doing anything with our purpose. I give you an example if you are a mother your purpose is to raise your children in becoming good if not great adults. Of course mistakes will happen however the importance is to the best that you know how. Needing to have any assistance go to your mother or someone that you respect as a mother. This will go for fathers as well though you have responsibility to work as well. Those that are working mothers don’t feel bad if you are not there for everything that your children do. These days often both parents have to work.

If you have any time available for this next week or so write down your accomplished that you have succeeded this year in one column and in another column what you would like to accomplish next year. Put in a safe place where a year from now you can see how well you did. Of course you won’t be perfect however you may even do better than you thought.

The theme for 2018 I feel should be “let’s do it”.  What I mean is for those of us are discovering our purpose and destiny go out and do it. If you are already than continue to go further. This is where plans should come in. Maybe it is important to add to what you are already doing or replacing what you have been doing with something new. The importance all together is doing what you were created to. Amen!
