Renewing my Focus for 2025: Delight in Christ--A Journey of Joy and Fulfillment
We're already 20 days into 2025, and I’ve been reflecting deeply on what truly matters in my life and calling (Ps. 39:4). This year, I’m renewing my focus on four key goals that guide my personal and spiritual journey. These goals are not just aspirations but commitments that shape how I live, serve, and grow in Christ—at least that’s my hope and prayer!
In 2016, I survived a classic widow-maker heart attack, followed by bypass surgery—a life-altering event that shattered any illusions of invincibility I once held. That experience gave me a stark reminder of life’s brevity and the importance of running my race with purpose (James 4:14). Now, at 53, with heart disease and a family history where most of the men in my family have died in their early 70s, I feel as though I’m entering the final laps of my race. This perspective gives me both urgency and clarity. Whether the Rapture occurs soon or I exit this life through death, I want to finish strong—running hard, pouring out my life for Christ, and crossing the finish line with joy. These goals, which echo what I once described as "Treasure Christ ~ Live the Word ~ Make Disciples ~ Finish Well," serve as my roadmap for living with passion and purpose in 2025 and beyond. 1. Delight in Christ – Finding my deepest joy and satisfaction in Him. 2. Embody Scripture – Living out God’s Word in every area of life. 3. Cultivate Disciples – Sharing the gospel and equipping others to grow in their faith. 4. Persevere to the End – Remaining faithful to Christ no matter the challenges. |
