Oh Happy Days!!

I really like new beginnings, the first day of school, the first day of new year, the day of summer, my birthday.  All of these times represent new beginnings to me.

Proverbs 16:9  "We plan the way we want to live, but only GOD mess us able to live it."

Rick Warrens' Daily Hope message today was titled
 "The Three Things You Need to Reach Your Goals"
-God's Spirit to empower you
-God's word to guide you.
-God's people to support you


In fact most of the books I have read about starting a new way of living suggests that you have theses three things in place before you start the journey.   

Strength:
It takes strength, but only through God will this strength amount to anything; 


Manual

People say we need a manual to get through life, rules to follow and what to do when we need to do in order to resolve these problems. The Bible is a manual to help you through life.

Support System:
 Finally you need people who you trust and who will support you through this journey. These are people who you know to have the values, principles and lifestyle that you want to achieve for yourself.

Enter 2015
I know what to do, it is time to do it.  Let's discuss this again in June 2015.
