Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

I Thessalonians 5: 16-18 NKJV

Look at all the opportunities that have come your way this year; the people you met, the relationships you have, the connections you made, the books you read, the messages listened to, the information you had access to, the deals you closed, the principles you learnt, the certification program you started or completed, the skills you acquired or are developing, the trainings you underwent, the things you survived, the challenges you overcame, the project you started, the progress you made no matter how small. The gift of friendship, family, a safe community, the list goes on.

Look at things, times and events in your life this year to be grateful for. What we focus on is magnified and what we ignore diminishes. Take the remaining part of this year to recount and choose to focus on these things and give thanks to God. If you do it every day for the rest of the year, your joy will overflow, your faith will rise, your hope will abound, your confidence will be high and your 2025 will be great. Now that’s how to end 2024 and knock on the door of 2025. May you have a glorious entrance and a rewarding experience in Jesus’ name.
