Here we are late December thinking about 2022. Well, I have a thought. How about we move forward with what we already started. Let me put it this way. We are in December the end of the year. A time we start to focus on the next year to come. We also celebrate Christmas. A time of focusing on the birth of Jesus. Then off to the next thing. Why do we separate the two events? A birth is the beginning of life. Notice I used beginning not end. So lets use this as the beginning it is and move forward now not after the new year has come. Why wait? This is a good way to keep Jesus on our minds as we go into 2022. Our focus can be where it needs to be first of all.

One popular saying this time of the year is “Jesus is the reason for the season.” Thinking about this saying is that its very limiting. Jesus is the reason period. All day every day, every moment. Once again where is our focus? Now more than ever we need to be moving in Christ. We need to be reading His word. Walking and using His word. Being obedient to Him and His word. All this starts with a relationship with Jesus. How is yours? The simple answer is it needs to be better. For all of us. No one can say its perfect. Because there is always up? Always more and better.

These are some thoughts to encourage you. They can encourage all of us. So please start with your relationship with Jesus. He will take care of you.

Be blessed, Ken
