Imagine going to your mailbox on January 1 and finding a large envelope. You open the envelope and discover a 2025 calendar. In the space allocated for each day you find the details of what will happen in your life that day.
Sound impossible? Even though you won’t receive such a calendar from God, you have a promise from Him that can put to rest your fears and doubts about the direction your life will take this year. Psalm 139:16 says, “You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed” (NLT). That’s why we can pray, with the psalmist that God will show us how to walk in His ways and His paths—because He already knows what we need to do.
If you want to walk in God’s ways, in God’s truth this year, then ask Him to show you the steps you should take—beginning today!
God’s ways are behind the scenes, but He moves all the scenes which He is behind.
John Nelson Darby
