Black and White Sugar Cookies
For I know the plans I have you declares the Lord , plans to prosper you not to harm you plans to give you a hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
With the New Year fast approaching and resolutions being developed and refined, I sit here meditating and fostering my own intentions and goals. As I do I quickly realize I have only one that really makes a difference in every aspect of my life, and that is to chase God like never before!! I want every step I take to begin and end with him. When we walk in step with God, completely surrendered and guided by him, nothing can shake us. We are solid and secure with our feet planted… standing on a firm foundation! Not only that, but when we chase God and not what we want … an abundance of blessings and favor will be poured out into our lives that there will not be enough room to store it!! So here’s to the New Year … Old things have passed away, Behold the new has come!! ~ 2 Corinthians 5:17
Chase God, and discover rest and favor inconceivable!!! 🌟🙏🏻
