Happy New Year Meet Market!
As we enter into the new year, this blog will serve as one of the avenues that the Meet Market core will use to communicate what’s on our minds and hearts. In addition, we always welcome feedback in regards to how to make our blog better and more relevant as this is somewhat of a test run.
So...does your “spiritual calendar” match your work/school calendar? In the workplace, December 31st marks the closing of the previous years’ books and records and a fresh set is started January 1st. The importance of this marker in the workplace/school, is that we can reflect back on what we did well and the areas that we struggled in. But how many of us do this in our spiritual lives? We crawl to the finish line, so that we can start on a “clean slate,” but many of us stop there. We think to ourselves, “I just want to be done with the sins of this past year, and start anew. Phew! 2010 now.” We don’t take the extra step to reflect on the spiritual areas we were diligent in and failed in, thus causing us to live without solid, focused intentions. Take a moment to reflect today. Ask yourself: “What areas of my spiritual life do I need to work on? How can I become more focused and effective for the Kingdom?” Then commit those things to the Lord. As we start off this new year, let’s make a push to live diligently NOW and not hold off until the busyness of life overtakes us!
