A Year For The Lord

A Year For The Lord

Forget the former.

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?” (Isaiah 43:18-19a, ESV)

The Higher Ground ladies met together, early in January, to dedicate their year to God. We discussed diverting our focus from the past (both the good and challenging times) to the marvelous things God is currently doing. We discovered how our insecurities and fears can disconnect us from God, and discussed with each other what God is telling us. Each participant picked a vision word for 2019, and the group had a lot of fun and worked together painting them. The ladies even found out vision words for fellow guests and several Wheeler staff women. They were really excited to encourage them by painting their vision words as well.

“Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal fro the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:13-14, ESV)
