3 wishes and ways for moving forward in the new year

From an article in World magazine, Andrée Seu says "The pilgrim is meant to make progress." The author describes three wishes that can assist us all in progressing in our faith for the new year.

1. Pray to have friends (at least one) who have more faith than you do. It is much easier to understand the Scriptures when you have a living, breathing, walking example beside you. Faith filled friends give Godly infection.

2. Get rid of everything doubtful in your life this year. "Let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God." 2 Corinthians 7:1

3. Master your tongue. "Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit." 1 Peter 3:10

"Speak slowly, put on a filter, let out no lie."

Challenge yourself this year men! Come along side another brother; ask somebody to come along you. Bottom line, don't go through it alone.
