As I opened my Open Heavens Devotional to its first page this morning, it struck me real hard that wow! God is giving me another opportunity to get it right, again!
And that is one good thing about each year. It’s like God is giving us another opportunity to get it right; to adjust; to make amendment; to take stock about our lives.
Life is in cycle. Thanks goodness we are serving a God of second chance; third chance; tenth chance and so on. I don’t know what number you are on now, but for me, this year will make my fortieth chance! Wow! So I just must get it right this time around, for a fool at forty is …
That you are privileged to see this New Year 2011 is a great sign from heaven that your case is not yet closed. There’s still hope for you. Heaven is still very hopeful about your life. God still believes you can make it; you can get it right; you can do it! Isn’t that amazing! What a faith-full God!
I remember the parable of the fruitless tree in Luke 13:6-8. Each year the lord of that vineyard comes around expecting some fruits, and yet there was nothing to pick, only to leave with the pleading of the keepers saying: “Let’s give it another chance; one more year.”
Well, I’m happy to announce to you that that prayer has been answered concerning you and I. There you are; you got it! One more year. What would you do with it?
A new page has just been turned in your life. A new chapter has been opened! Are there things you need to do differently this year? Are there adjustments you need to make.
I know for me, definitely, there are. If you don’t realize that need, then, there is a problem.
Wishing you a prosperous new year. Here in the eastern African, it is a year of Extra Measures—in everything!
