I’m also reflecting on the year ahead—big goals, little goals, and what holds us back. Fear, self-sufficiency, and sin can sabotage our faithfulness to God, but prayer realigns our hearts, reminds us of God’s power, and reconnects us to our purpose.
Key Takeaways:
🔥 Fear makes us forget God’s faithfulness—prayer helps us remember.
🔥 Self-sufficiency tricks us into thinking we don’t need God’s power.
🔥 Sin is more than immorality—it’s idolatry that distracts us from glorifying God.
Reflection Question:
How have fear, self-sufficiency, or sin impacted your spiritual growth?
