In this new year we need to remain bold in our faith, attune to the Holy Spirit, and encouraging others towards Christ.

• Boldness through faith: Jesus is our High Priest, through his sacrifice we can pray with confidence knowing God hears our prayers.
• Spiritual health: We need to assess our spiritual condition. Are we living healthy lives or languishing like a desert?
• Continue in the faith: Make a commitment in this new year to read scripture, pray more, and share with people what God is doing in your life all the while encouraging others to do the same!
