Finish the year

From Jacqueline Whitney

You still have time to finish this year differently than you started it. You can make peace with what happened, stop punishing yourself for what you didn't know, and give God the things you've spent months trying to figure out alone. Imagine how much lighter you could feel entering 2027 without carrying everything that made this year so difficult.

3 things to give back to God before 2026 ends

1.  The guilt you carry over things you cannot change. You

     have spent enough time wishing you had known better, chosen       

     differently, or recognized what was happening sooner. God

     knows the person you were when you made those decisions, and

     He know the person you have become because of them. You are

     allowed to forgive yourself and move forward.

2.  The prayers you are afraid will never be answered. You do

     not have to spend the rest of this year trying to figure out when

     or how everything will happen. Give God the things you still

     hope for, even the ones you have almost stopped believing in.

     You can trust His timing without giving up on the beautiful

     things you want for your life.

3.  The responsibility of making everything work out. You

     were never meant to carry the weight of every outcome, every

     relationship, and every unanswered question. Do what you can

     with the life in front of you, and let God take care of what is

     beyond your control. You do not have to enter another year 

     exhausted from trying to do His job for Him.
