Preparing to Live

On this three hundred and fifty-seventh day of 2020, we are three days from Christmas and then we'll be knocking on the door of 2021.  

What is on your to-do list for these final ten days of our crazy year?  Even if you don't make a list, you do, I trust, keep mental notes on your accomplished tasks as well as your not-yet-completed tasks.  

Wishing not to introduce any unneeded stress to your life, I do, however, ask you to consider adding a "to-do" / mental note to your list.  Devote some time over these next few days to evaluating your use of the year.  Evaluate not for the purpose of critique alone; that may lead only to an unnecessary feeling of shame or regret.  Evaluate, rather, for the purpose of preparing to live the coming year in such a way that your everyday Ordinary Life glorifies God.  Here are some suggestions on where to begin . . .
  1. Evaluate your worship.
    Did you worship well in 2020?
  2. Reflect on your relationships.
    Did you love your wife?
    Did you respect your husband?
    Did you love your children?
    Have you been a good friend?
  3. Think about your vocation.
    Are you giving it your all?
    Are you looking for ways to use your job as a ministry / platform for faith?
  4. Take note of your connections.
    How is your church-going going?  (in person and / or online)
    Have you been in touch with your friends from church?
  5. Note your discipline (or lack thereof).
    Are you reading your Bible?
    Are you listening for / to God?
  6. Observe your habits.
    Eating well?
    Getting enough sleep?
    Exercising?
  7. Look into your stewardship.
    Are you saving?
    Are you giving?
    Are you buying an appropriate amount of "wants"?

Take some time to go through those questions.  Answer honestly.  Make adjustments as needed.  Live well.
