2016 is here! Are you in peace?

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)


New year, new me is what comes out of a lot of us every single year. But the truth is most of us just don't know what will be of us once again. We begin the new year with a lot of problems and possible solutions. Some of which we have had for consecutive years. Our self esteem and self worth is going down the drain because for many years we have tried to become someone we're not and that has frustrated us. We haven't lost those extra pounds, still love junk food and are feeling totally defeated.

Yet the smile on our face is there, the fake sense of "I can do this" still resides in the superficial us. Our #1 problem is that we don't want to know what God wants of us. We try to change the things that we think should be changed. We go for crazy diets that harm us more than benefit us, and in the end, we get nowhere. 

Our first step to success in any area of our life is to STOP!

Stop thinking you know what to do.
Stop dreading all the wrong that has already happened in your life
Stop blaming yourself for everything that didn't go well.
Stop blaming others around you for the mistakes.

AND COMPLETELY STOP going to the wrong place, and the wrong people for answers!

God knows us better than we do. He knows what needs to be changed, eliminated or left alone in our lives. He is the only one who can capacitate us to do whatever it is we need to do. 

So do you want to live in peace? Then live with God commanding and guiding your life. 
Trust God, he knows whats best for us. That is the only way that we will truly accomplish something worth accomplishing during this new year of our lives.
