Are you good at organizing? Be on a VBS committee. Finding your talents & sharing them– Do you love children? Teach a Bible class.

(II Corinthians 9:7) I kid you not, when I say, when I am giving like I should, to the church, things just seem to go a lot better for me as a whole. Hebrews 10:22-24 let us draw near with a true heart… Applying the Word to our lives– The thing that comes to mind first are 3 “let us” verses.Then, I would get behind, never to catch up. I love this because I have tried to do the daily Bible reading before. Reading your Bible– Ok, so Melanie at Southern Melle is on my radar today! She also has made a weekly Bible reading plan for 2016.And y’all, she said yes & I was clearly delighted! What an awesome way to start the year, or anytime you want to focus on prayer. I emailed her & asked could I use her scripture challenge for all of us. Prayer-Melanie over at Southern Melle has made a 31 day scripture writing challenge on prayer.Here are some noteworthy things to focus on this year: Today, I want us to focus on our spiritual life & doing some cleaning out & dusting off.

It’s also a time to make goals & focus on making the next year the best one yet. This is a perfect time to take inventory of things in your life. However, it is also a time for planning & looking forward to the new year & all it has to hold. We clearly have been blessed beyond measure. From a grandbaby turning 1 year old, to news of a new grandbaby, to my sweet E.A.’s journey to getting married, Miss Neenee turning 12, her playing the trumpet in the band & lots of other wonderful things . Y’all….We made it! Christmas is behind us & 2016 is before us.
