Time For a Reset

We are embarking on the beginning of a New Year and new decade. There is always excitement in the air whenever we see change in our future. We have a new hope and our dreams for a fresh start begin to consume us. Some people look back and desire the good old days while others charge into their next season with great expectations. There is no right or wrong attitude when facing the unknown and exploring unchartered territory. Maybe it is a good thing to go from one emotion to the other and not limit our dreams and visions.

With this shift in the atmosphere, we can anticipate a freshness that can be the fuel needed to reset our lives. Sometimes our lives get entangled in drama, disappointment, delays, struggles and setbacks. These can cause us to get stuck or continue to repeat a pattern of behavior that is unhealthy. When this happens it may be an indicator that we need to do things differently.

Resetting your life may mean upgrading some of your old ways or totally gutting out old habits and start fresh with a new attitude, a new outlook and even new friends and associates. This requires us to make decisions that will have short-term and long-term benefits. It may be unsettling in the beginning or take time to get used to but it will be worth it. Making the changes necessary to be your best can take time yet not changing will be even more challenging.

We have to do our best to become what we desire to become. There is nothing that can happen that God is not aware of so taking the risk to reset your life and start fresh is worth it. Our lives consist of a series of choices and the best choice we can make at various times is to start over again. We must do the work needed to change and become the person we desire to be.

Resetting your life takes courage, commitment, and confidence and will require change but these can be done with the grace of God and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Jesus will redeem, reset, and restore our lives. Make this the best year, the best decade, and the best life you want to live. It’s time for a reset.
