KNOW(N) Ministries

It is hard to believe that 2018 is over. I think we can all agree that this year has gone by very quickly.

January 1, 2018, I began journaling. Today, I began to look through my journal and I cannot believe where God has brought me in just a year; His goodness is overwhelming.

The recurring theme through my journal was that no matter what I was going through, God walked with me every step of the way. Through all of my seasons and hard times, the Lord strengthened, stablished, and settled me.

What God has done/shown me this year:

• Given me a safe and healthy year along with my family.
• Shown me who I am in Him, have confidence in my God-given identity, and that His approval is all I need.
• Shown me that no matter what, He is all I need. He is my joy and strength. He is my all in all, my everything, my Abba Father.
• He has a plan for my life and will guide my steps.
• Though God has a plan for my life, Satan does as well and will stop at nothing to destroy me, but I am victorious in Him who died for me.
• Spiritual warfare is real.
• He is the Light of my life.
• My prayer life needs to be strengthened.
• Nothing in this life can satisfy my soul or bring me joy; only He can.
• My citizenship is not in this world, it is in heaven.
• He has brought such wonderful people into my life and blessed me an amazing church family.
• He will never leave or forsake me and will continue to lead me along this road of life.
• He is able to restore my brokenness and use it for His glory and my good.
• His goodness is unceasing, His mercy unfailing, His grace abounding, and His love unending.
• No matter where I am, I can have church, because the Lord is with me wherever I go.
• No one is too far gone; rejoice when they come back home.
• Satan has been defeated, but that does not mean he is not seeking to kill, steal, and destroy.
• The interruptions in life are meant for Spiritual growth.
• Do not put anyone on a pedestal.
• A relationship with Jesus is far more precious than anything or anyone I could ever imagine or materialistically attain.
• God is not finished with me.
• His faithfulness is great.
• I need to act like the young lady that God intends me to be, not what society deems acceptable.
• Biblical Correctness>Political Correctness
• Trust in Him.
• God has a plan, purpose, and provision.
• My identity IS Christ.
• To live is Christ and to die is gain.
• Jesus will ALWAYS remain constant.

I could go on, but I’ll stop there. These things barely scratch the surface. I am so thankful for 2018, the lessons I have learned through this year, and my Spiritual growth. I am so blessed, but so unworthy of it all. Thank you Jesus for such a great year, You are SO good.
