Captivity
Body
Dear Friend in Christ, The new year started off rather uniquely for a 'nameless' woman in Laingsburg, Michigan. She heard 'angry, accented voices' coming from her living room. Fearing her husband was being held hostage by an intruder, she hid in a bathroom closet and whispered to the police on her cell phone. Sheriff’s deputies and a state trooper surrounded the house as the woman stayed on the phone line. They entered the house with guns drawn only to find a man sitting on the couch watching TV - alone! Police graciously did not release the woman’s name. At least she was partially right - TV, and many other things, do hold many people captive. What bad habits or old patterns do you need to break away from in this new year? I would like to encourage you with the same directive the prophet Isaiah gave to Israel in Babylon: “But forget all that - it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness.

Press on, It’s a New Year!
Body
Have you ever wanted to try something new but just didn’t have the focus or courage to do it? I know I have, and the Lord has helped me many times to face my fears of moving forward. There’s a man in the Bible that overcame some incredible odds and amazingly pushed through, even with some horrible past experiences. Paul, who wrote much of the New Testament, has the secret to moving forward that can apply to you in the new year!
