What Are Your Purpose and Goals?

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's (1 Corinthians 6:20).

A new year is a time when many assess where they are and set goals for the coming year. Do you do this for your spiritual life too? We were all made to glorify God. How well are you doing this? What might you need to do differently in the coming year?

We ought to obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29b).

As a part of glorifying, God we need to follow His truths, obey His Word, and fulfill His purposes. At the end of our lives, nothing we have done will matter except these things. How well we've loved others and reached out to help them will live on. The positions we've held, our possessions, or our worldly success will not.

He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit (John 15:5b).

God is waiting for us to renew an intimate relationship with Him. We have Jesus as our Savior and the best example to follow. And we have the Holy Spirit dwelling within us to be our mentor and guide. So, beginning right now, let's reassess and realign ourselves with our Creator and become the person He calls us to be, making this the best year ever.
