Happy New Year, 2023!
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:2
To renew also means to renovate. When we renovate a house, we would have to identify what is important to keep and what needs to remove and change. New Year marks a new beginning for us to start anew. Let’s focus on what God has in store for us and seek His face with an open heart and mind. Let Him transform and renew our hearts with His word and the Holy Spirit.
A renewed mind is what allows us to be in tune with His good and perfect will.
Here’s to a Happy New Year, 2023!
It’s the new year, and I wanted to restart something that I did ten years ago — keeping a thanksgiving journal to count my blessings daily. But instead of posting it on Facebook as I did ten years ago, this time is on my blog. God’s love and grace exist in little things around us, which are only noticeable through a thankful heart. I am looking forward to a year of thankfulness. And may my Daily Grace blog also be a blessing to everyone who reads it and be a source of inspiration and motivation for all of us to be more mindful and thankful for the small blessings we often take for granted.
