Starting a new year is always a time to reflect on what our goals are for our future. Most will make goals to be or stay fit, some to get rid of bad habits others for life changing decisions. While we are in the process of analyzing our life one important question to ask is what type of example have we been? Living a careless life without any consideration for how it might affect others needs to soon come to an end. We need to start weighing in the consequences of our attitudes. Are we a mirror that others can reflect out of? I will let you answer that question for yourself.
I think of this more every coming year. Probably because of the importance of my children seeing a good example in me that they can reflect off.
It is selfish to think of only ones self without having the desire to positively change someones life. We need to strive to live a life of inner peace that can only come from prioritizing our relationship with God. I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that the most important piece to have peace (regardless of what may be happening around you) is to make God your very source of strength.
My faith in God quiets my soul and brings harmony into my home. I know that getting to know God and what He expects of me changes me daily. I see the changes in myself when i look at my own children for they are the reflection of me. I am their mirror. Likewise I'm the mirror to all those that surround me. This only emphasises the importance of showing others that God lives in me so that they too can strive to obtain the peace that only comes from making God our everything.
