A new year has begun. In this year, what kind of steps should we make before God, in order to receive the blessing from Him?
Firstly, it is to make our steps while praising God. This is because we receive salvation, which is such a wonderful grace. Let us walk our lives while praising God, so that the people around us will notice it.
Secondly, it is to walk by having the worship to God centered. It is to place the worship to the heart of our lives. Then, there comes the blessing of God. Do not center other things.
Thirdly, it is to follow the word of God today. The more humbly sheep follow the voice of the shepherd, the safer they are and the better things they can receive. It is important also for us to hear the voice of the Lord our shepherd, and follow it humbly today.
How are we walking our lives before God? If we rely on our thoughts or the experiences we had last year, we will fail. Instead, let us bear what we learned today in mind. When we hear the voice of God, let us follow it humbly today and go forward!
