Before you get to the goals

Whether you love your annual goal-setting day or you’d rather rest than create a list of resolutions, chances are that the soon-to-come new year is on your mind. Our personalities may shape how we approach fresh beginnings, but none of us are immune to the ways that January’s arrival hums a new tune.
As you think about what you want to accomplish in 2022 or you simply try to live day-by-day, all of us can benefit from taking time to fix our intentions on the person of Christ. Before you get to goals or the return to the grind, give yourself the chance to consider how God’s goodness has shaped your past and present and will continue to shape your future. As Heidi S. Wheeler writes, “the holy work of change starts with contemplation before action.”
May your farewell to 2021 and hello to 2022 be covered with the kindness of Jesus.
