2012
What are your highlights for 2012? In our family we talk each night before bed by asking "what was your favourite part of today that you are thankful for?" This helps us review the day and giving us a time to celebrate as a family those things through out the day that we are thankful for. Yet as you review 2012, what are those things that you are thankful for? Personally, youth ministry, family, personal development, etc?
2013
What are the highlights that you are looking forward to this new year? What is your purpose and direction behind those things that you are laying the plans down in your life or ministry to accomplish this year? What has God given you a passion and drive to move forward on this new year? Are you scared? If it's truly a vision from God for you , your family, your ministry, your neighbourhood you need to rest in the faith that God is going to grow in and through you.
Colossians 1:3-5Our prayers for you are always spilling over into thanksgivings. We can't quit thanking God our Father and Jesus our Messiah for you! We keep getting reports on your steady faith in Christ, our Jesus, and the love you continuously extend to all Christians. The lines of purpose in your lives never grow slack, tightly tied as they are to your future in heaven, kept taut by hope.
6-8The Message is as true among you today as when you first heard it. It doesn't diminish or weaken over time. It's the same all over the world. The Message bears fruit and gets larger and stronger, just as it has in you. From the very first day you heard and recognized the truth of what God is doing, you've been hungry for more. It's as vigorous in you now as when you learned it from our friend and close associate Epaphras. He is one reliable worker for Christ! I could always depend on him. He's the one who told us how thoroughly love had been worked into your lives by the Spirit.
