As we reflect on the previous year and look forward to the year ahead.
What are some things you want to change in this next year? It could be an attitude you want to change. It could be someone you should spend more time with. It could be something you stop or start doing. Whatever it is, pray and ask God to show you how to be a better you in 2020.
Maybe there is something he wants to teach you or grow you in this year.
As you think about 2020 what is a word that comes to mind? It could be about change, endurance, peace, trust, kindness, joy, etc... Pray and ask God to show you the theme word of your life for 2020.
You can even go deeper and just pray for God to give you steps for this year and how you can stick to them.
You don't have to use the questions I gave but I do encourage you to spend time in reflection.
Reflecting on the past year is a great way to check at the growth you have made, and the areas that need growth. Celebrating the victories and figuring out how to improve on the failures.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" -2 Corinthians 5:17
"Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord."

"You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness." -Ephesians 4:22-24
