Welcome into 2014!  Stop whatever negative thoughts or energy you may have lingering from 2013. Look for the dawning of a new day, a new year. Listen to positive, uplifting words.

Now, let's roll up our sleeves.  I really hope you did not make any resolutions.  Why; because they are usually broken.  My prayer is that we as Christians begin to be more diligent in our intercessory prayer.  I am a firm believer in Matthew 18:20, "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”  l believe that when Christians Stop complaining and moving too fast, Look to God in all of our circumstances and Listen for God's still voice that change will occur.  Not only do we have to Stop, Look and Listen we also have to implement.  That's right; we have to take action when God tells us to do something.  John 3:30 gives us clear instruction - "He must increase, but I must decrease."  In other words, we have to Stop believing that we can fix everything.  Yes, we all need a human touch from time to time, but "can't nobody do me like Jesus".
