The Daily Dose #0114

A new year is a fresh opportunity to renew your commitment to God. Wesley’s covenantal prayer reflects the heart of a believer fully surrendered to Christ’s purposes. Beginning the year with this mindset means placing your life completely in His hands, trusting Him to lead you in every step and decision.

Today, as you reflect on the year ahead, ask yourself: What does full surrender look like in your life? Commit your plans, hopes, and challenges to God, and trust that His purpose for you is greater than anything you can imagine. Start this year with a heart that says, “Lord, I am Yours.”

"Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established."
— Proverbs 16:3
