I hear a lot of people keep saying 2016 has been a hellish year, a disaterous year and that they cannot wait for 2017. Why don’t people say; 2016 has been a year full of challenges but by the grace of God I’m still here?  The Bible says; this is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it. Nothing that has happened in 2016 took God by surprise. So in these last few hours let’s rethink how our 2016 was and rejoice in the Lord. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Can people tell that we are Christians from the way we act? Can people tell that we are Christians from the way we show love? Sadly when it comes to the church many people see us acting and loving like the world, they cannot tell a difference. We need to clean up our character from the pulpit to the back door. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Don’t wait until next year to start being a better you. Start being a better you today. As you can see, everyone will not make it to see next year. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

2016 is not over yet so there’s still time for God to move on your behalf this year. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

The greates gift I’ve ever received is salvation. 

Church is the only place people quit when they get hurt. I mean they just stop going and keep talking about the hurt they experienced years and years down the road. That’s funny to me because, they don’t quit their job when they get hurt or offended on the job. They don’t quit dating when the other person hurts them, they just let that person go and get someone new. Church hurt is not a reason to quit. Just pray and ask God to give you a forgiving heart and if it’s his will let you find a new place of worship. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.  

If we spent more time trying to please God rather than being people pleasers we’d be much better off than we are. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

Do you get offended when someone doesn’t speak to you at work or at church? Don’t take it personal. We never know what a person is going through. We don’t know what it took for them to get to work or church. Honestly, we are the furthest thing from their mind. They are too consumed with what they have to face. So, instead of being offended that no one spoke to you, speak to them and keep it moving. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

How many of you are spending money you don’t have this holiday season just to put a smile on someone’s face? Before you spent the money, did you take care of home first? Did you ensure all the bills were paid and there was enough food to last for more than a day? Or were you too busy giving your hard earned money away just to be able to say what you did for someone on Christmas Day? Material things don’t express love. It may make someone happy and feel good but that’s not love. There is a gift we can give everyone and it’s already been paid for. We can tell them about Jesus birth, death, and resurrection. Now that’s a gift worth having. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing. 

God will supply all of our needs according to his riches and glory. God didn’t bring you this far to leave you. He knows what you have need of. Trust him and obey his word, God will provide. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
