2020 has been a different-kind of year. We started off the year with high hopes of #2020vision and experiencing new things this year and maybe growing in areas. And then the pandemic hit amidst disturbing racial injustices and all of that during a critical election year. Whew…what a year it has been. But through it all, you made it! You are still here to finish strong. God has blessed you with an opportunity to clarify your vision and experience growth during all that’s going on. Have you taken time to see what God is doing in your life? Has He opened your eyes to things you didn’t see in the busyness of life? Has He removed “comforts” and conveniences from your life that kept you stuck in cycles? Has He allowed you to exercise creativity and rely on His strength? 

All along, 2020 has given us many precious life lessons if we look for and embrace them. This year has been characterized by many different emotions, feelings and experiences but we can finish the race that’s been set before us! What do you need to finish that you started in January? What do you need to work towards? What lesson do you need to embrace and always remember? 

Use these next few weeks to make a difference in your life and in the life of someone else. Treasure each lesson you’ve learned. Finish strong!
