Many people, no matter their location or type of weather, make plans at the beginning of the year. For us, the month of January is a time to pray and seek the Lord for the vision that He has for our coming year. Sometimes, things go according to plan, but sometimes there are surprises and storms along the way. What we can do is to keep our focus on Jesus no matter what happens in 2025. For me, I have a lot to look forward to: my book is coming out in February, and it’s called Finding a Happy Home. We hope to travel to some of the states in order to preach the good news, and sell some books. As a church, we will be reading through the Bible this year. For me, it will be the first time in Portuguese. Let’s all have a great year, with great expectations of what God will do in and through us.
