Dear Steven
 

Though winter just started, it will soon be spring. The year that just begun will be over before we know it, if the Lord allows us time. What will you do with this next year?

 

Will you prepare to teach your fellow students or coworkers? Is there someone you have been meaning to talk to, but have put it off? Time slips by quickly, so make an effort to do what you have put off.

 

Do not allow past failures or guilt over neglect to stop you from pressing forward. Paul had to put things in the past behind him (Phil. 3:12-14). We must put failures and successes in their proper place and go on to serve the Lord further in the future. If we do not, we will be paralyzed or stagnant; neither of which is good.

 

Give us your feedback on the articles and what you would like to learn more about.

 

Thanks for reading.
