Check Yourself Before You Make a MESS

We're in 2025! Glory to God! Many didn't make it to see or enjoy a new year... a new beginning! I am just grateful to God for allowing us to be here and have a restart to our new year!

I do want to say this. If we are going to have a better year, we have to make sure we are emotionally intelligent. We have to guard our emotions, which in turn means that we have to guard our hearts!

We have to be protective of our heart. We have to know who to let in and who to keep at bay. There are some relationships/ people who can't have the same access to you as they had last year. We have to face the hard truth that God is truly doing a new thing! Can we perceive it? #Selah

Here are a few keys to winning when it comes to your emotions:

1. Reflect with Gratitude. Don't let last year's frustrations interfere with what God is doing now. 

• Biblical Principle: “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

2. Manage Negative Emotions. Control them or they will control you!  😬

• Biblical Principle: “Be angry, and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your wrath.” (Ephesians 4:26)

3. Set Goals with Wisdom. God is doing a new thing. Prepare for it.

• Biblical Principle: “Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” (Proverbs 16:3)
