Looking back on 2025:
What was GREAT - Great in the moment, great in your memories, and constructive for your future. We need much more of that!
What was GOOD - It didn’t check all the boxes, but it had some redeemable qualities.
What was BAD - I’m not exactly talking about sinful things, we know those have to go. But what about choices that are amoral but just don’t check any boxes?
Clarity on these three lists can help you use what has happened (2025) to best plan for what is coming (2026).
OKAY, to the List! Here are the first three:
1. Resetting the Heart: Return to Your First Love
Questions:
- When was your love for God the strongest?
- What has changed in your life?
- Has God changed, and why does that matter?
Exercises:
- Pick a Gospel and read a chapter a day, focusing on the love of God for man and the love of Jesus for people.
- Restart one spiritual habit from a time when your faith felt strongest.
- Spend a few minues a day thanking God specifically for His love for you.
2. Focusing More on God: Removing Distractions
Questions:
- Do you remember when it was God above all else?
- How is happiness in Christ better than joy in distractions?
- What is the most invasive distraction?
Exercises:
- Identify your biggest distraction and minimize it for a full week.
- Begin each morning with prayer and Scripture before the phone.
- Schedule a two minute afternoon checkup to assess time usage for the day.
3. Attitude of Thankfulness: Daily Gratitude
Questions:
- What are you most thankful for in your life?
- What other things have obscured your view?
- How is there room for both in your life with proper perspective?
Exercises:
- Choose one thing daily and practice level three gratitude
- Tell one person each day something you appreciate about them
- End each night with a prayer that exclusively offers thanks to God
