Unfortunately, the mere thought of starting over can feel like a demand and send some of us (e.g. me) into mild anxiety. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve put together this article that shows you why you don\u2019t have to sweat it when the new year rolls around. And truth is, we can have a fresh start at any point in time, with the Lord.<\/p>\n<p>Here goes:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. First things first: Don\u2019t despair if you\u2019re not over the struggles of last year<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Are you still struggling with certain weaknesses, letting go of someone, or even a vice that you feel you should&#8217;ve been free of by now?<\/p>\n<p>My friend, you can live according to the timeline of God\u2019s grace, not your self-imposed ones. The Lord isn\u2019t beating you up for your failings, so please don\u2019t either. But neither is He being indulgent of sin, though. He\u2019s inviting you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BpozyKtF2PA\/\">receive His gift of forgiveness and grace<\/a>, that\u2019ll help you triumph over every weakness and failure. Trust the process of His grace. The Bible says that we are more than conquerors through Him <strong>who loved us, <\/strong>not just \u201cthrough Him\u201d (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Romans+8%3A37&amp;version=NKJV\">Rom. 8:37<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>That means that the key to conquering those challenges this year is by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BpW004NAHMN\/\">receiving even more of the Lord&#8217;s love<\/a> for you.<\/p>\n<h3>2. New Year&#8217;s are special, but it\u2019s not on you to make the year awesome<\/h3>\n<p>Perhaps like me, the new year fills you with a fair amount of anxiety because you feel the pressure to start again, make it good this time, etc. Personally, I used to try to ease my fears by telling myself, &#8220;It\u2019s just another set of 365 days. Nothing special.&#8221; No expectations, no disappointment, right? But the truth&#8217;s that the division of years is God&#8217;s idea (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Genesis+1%3A14&amp;version=NKJV\">Gen. 1:14<\/a>). He knows we need these markers of time. New years <em>are <\/em>special. <em>But <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bh1WQTwB_dr\/\">the pressure&#8217;s not on you<\/a> to make the year awesome by your own efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus Himself said, \u201cI am the Vine, you are the branches. Without Me, <strong>you can do nothing<\/strong>.\u201d How liberated would we be if we really believed this verse in our heart of hearts? Best of all, the Lord is not a hard slave driver. He says, &#8220;My yoke is easy and My burden is light.&#8221; Ask Him, &#8220;What do You have in store for me this year, Lord?&#8221; and just allow Him to guide you along paths that will drip with His abundance (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Psalm+65%3A11&amp;version=NKJV\">Ps. 65:11<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Don&#8217;t like your life? Change what you\u2019re seeing in your heart<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This year, don&#8217;t let your past, history or experience define how you see yourself. They are facts (which can be painfully real, I know), but God&#8217;s Word is <strong>truth<\/strong>. Let passages like Psalm 112, which describes you as a blessed man\/woman in Christ whose \u201cheart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord\u201d, and verses like Romans 8:11, which says that the very resurrection life that raised Jesus from the dead <strong>lives in you<\/strong>, start recreating your world.<\/p>\n<p>When you have such images in your heart that are painted by God\u2019s infallible Word, it&#8217;s only a matter of time before you start living the glorious life He died to give you. Remember that long before our Father Abraham even had one child, God first gave him a picture of how his descendants would be as numerous as the stars in the night skies. Today, that vision has come to pass and continues to: All of us who\u2019re believers are considered his descendants (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Galatians+3%3A29&amp;version=NKJV\">Gal. 3:29<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>No matter how helpless you may feel regarding changing your outward circumstances, there is one thing you have full control over: And that&#8217;s the movie reel playing in your heart. This year, let God&#8217;s Word repaint your world.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Make space for God in your routine<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>John C. Maxwell once said, &#8220;You&#8217;ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.&#8221; This year, why not try starting and ending each day with God&#8217;s Word (you can simply mutter a verse under your breath that speaks to you, listen to a sermon for 5 minutes, etc.)? You can also thank God for something and ask Him for something before you go to sleep every night.<\/p>\n<p>Before our Lord Jesus miraculously multiplied a little boy&#8217;s lunch to feed the 5,000, He gave thanks for the five loaves and two fish too. Great miracles are always preceded by thanksgiving, my friend\u2026it\u2019s a great idea to make it your way of life.<\/p>\n<p>Best of all, these four tips don\u2019t have an expiration date in January\u2014you can start on them any time of year, any time you want a fresh start. So here&#8217;s to your best year yet, pals\u2026with the Lord guiding you every step of the way. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"share-box fusion-sharing-box boxed-icons\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff;\" data-title=\"For anyone who\u2019s trusting God for a fresh start: read this.\" data-description=\"For anyone who\u2019s trusting God for a fresh start: read this. \r\n\r\nSarah G | 4 min read \r\nSo it\u2019s the New Year\u2014the season of starting afresh, of new beginnings and clean slates.
