The transition from December 31st to January 1st is marked by lots of long standing traditions. New Year's superstition and folklore come from around the world and span decades and even centuries, from the kiss at midnight to filling up on collard greens and black-eyed peas to blowing noise makers and setting off fireworks. These traditions began as efforts by some to generate good favor, to secure blessings, to usher in good luck.
If you are looking for ways to live, commitments to make, inspiration for the future or just for a pathway to blessing, look no further than God’s Word. Jesus said in Luke 11:28, “Blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
We explore ten passages from Scripture that we hope will inspire the way you want to live your life this coming year. Additional scriptures referenced include 2 Corinthians 4:17-18; 1 Peter 1:3-4; Psalm 65:11; Lamentations 3:22-23; Deuteronomy 31:8; Jeremiah 29:11; Job 8:7; Philippians 4:6, 13; and Isaiah 40:30-31.
