God day ,
"Do you know what the world needs RIGHT NOW?"
The Lord asked me that question this morning. I didn't have to ponder my answer very long.
I said to Him, "HOPE."
Then He asked me to look up the definition of hope. So I looked in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary:
Hope: to cherish a desire with anticipation: to want something to happen or be true.
If I were speaking with you face to face right now and I would ask you WHAT are you hoping for, what would be your answer?
Think about that for a moment.
Why?
You get to CHOOSE what you hope for.
God has given you the Power to Choose, hasn't He?
Since that is the case, then why not make one of the best decisions of 2020 and choose to hope in what God wants you to hope for?
YOUR BEST FOCUS FOR 2020
This year has been a historic year to say the least. At the end on 2019, the Lord told me that 2020 would be a year of Rearranging Priorities.
Has that happened to you?
For me, it's led me to seek the Lord even more so I know what His priorities are for me each day.
One of the best choices you can make for 2020 is to seek the Lord each morning and ask Him for His priorities for your life.
I promise, you will never regret asking that question in the morning.
Once the Lord reveals to you what HIS priorities are, you know what will change in your life?
Your Focus.
Imagine focusing ONLY on what God wants you to focus on.
HOPE IS YOUR NEW FOCUS
You get to choose what to focus on every day, so why not focus on hope?
I remember seeing this amazing illustration about choosing our perspective. I want you to picture yourself facing a friend.
Next, imagine you putting up your hand in front of your friend.
Then ask your friend what they see.
They can describe the palm of your hand, but when you look at your hand, you see your knuckles, veins and fingernails.
It's still the SAME hand, but you both see it from two totally different perspectives.
You get to choose your PERSPECITIVE of this monumental year.
In less than two months, 2020 will be behind us.
My question for you is this...
"How will you finish this year with HOPE?"
Remember, you can seek the Lord every morning to ask Him for His priorities.
Just because this year has not turned out the way you ORIGINALLY hoped it would turn out, doesn't mean you can't change your FOCUS.
BE THANKFUL
Over the next week, I encourage you to share with your family and friends what you have been truly THANKFUL for in 2020.
If you want others to have more hope, they need to be reminded of the Goodness of God.
You can choose every day to be thankful.
The past two months, I have been writing in my T.A.G. Journal.
T.A.G. stands for: Thankful, Appreciative and Grateful.
Every day, I write...
"I am so Thankful, Appreciative and Grateful for..."
As I look back what I have written in my T.A.G. Journal, I am amazed at the Goodness of God.
Remembering what God has done in and through your life this year, will help you change your focus to Hope.
I encourage you to write down what you are Thankful, Appreciative and Grateful every day.
Then share it with others.
Why?
What you share with them can give them Hope in the Goodness of God.
Thank you for your prayers, encouragement and support.
