Why Honesty, Connection, and ‘No’ Will Save You This Year
Every year we say it:“I’ll be glad when this year is over.”“I’ll start fresh in January.”
As if midnight turns you into a superhero. You may have even heard a sermon or two about Paul and Silas praying in Jail, and at midnight, the doors flew open. I get you... But...
Newsflash: Midnight doesn’t always bring miracles... Jesus does.
The ball dropping won’t drop bad habits.
Confetti won’t pay bills
Champagne won’t fix character.
New year.Same you.
Change doesn’t come from the clock.It comes from Christ.
And while we’re here—let’s talk honesty.
Integrity is sometimes all you have.
If you say you’ll be there—be there.
If you don’t have it—say you don’t.
If you don't want to do something - Just say "NO"
“No” is a holy word. “No” is liberating. “No” saves relationships.
Lying is exhausting. Truth sets you free.
Just ask Olive Oyl.
She wanted Popeye’s love and Bluto’s money.She straddled the fence.And when trouble came, she knew who to call.
You may have left God.But you’re going to need Him.
And the good news is... He still shows up.
So will this year be easy? No.
But can it be done? Yes.
Lift your head. Square your shoulders. Take the step.
You don’t have to do everything. Just say: “I can do this.”
Because if God is for you,Who can be against you?
