Today is our final day together. What a year it’s been! As we conclude, reflect on how you can make today the start of something truly significant in your life. Throughout this journey, we’ve explored the depths of faith, wrestled with tough questions, and sought God’s wisdom in every season. And now, the Apostle Paul encourages us with the truth that as surely as God has started a great work in our lives, He will bring it full to completion—with a flourish!

God’s Word is a treasure trove of illuminating truth, powerful promises, and raw, honest prayers. The Psalmist, David, the guy God Himself called, “a man after my own heart,” poured out his deepest emotions—sorrow, anger, joy, and doubt—before the Lord. He shows us that God loves it when we run toward Him, depend upon His promises and authentically pour out our hearts to Him. He wants us to bring everything in our lives to Him in prayer because He knows us, He loves us, and He has exactly what we need..

Today is both an ending of one incredible journey of devotion, and in fact the beginning of what comes next. I want to leave you with five invitations—five commitments—that can guide you toward building a truly significant life:

1. Move beyond coping with change and into thriving amid the unknown: Instead of merely enduring changes, let’s embrace them as opportunities for growth and trust in God’s guidance.
2. Boldly confront hidden fears and insecurities: By acknowledging our weaknesses and vulnerabilities, we open ourselves to receiving God’s strength and embracing our true identity in Christ.
3. Pursue genuine community: God never intended us to walk alone. Let’s actively seek out relationships that encourage our faith and support us in our journey.
4. Cultivate a culture of joy: Actively, intentionally pursue a climate of rejoicing in your circle. In your family, in your communities, choose to live together always looking UP, and never DOWN.
5. Build a legacy of love and restoration: Finally, let’s commit to leaving a lasting impact by loving God wholeheartedly and showing His love to those around us. That’s how you shape generations to come. And this is your great pursuit: love God, and love the people He puts in your path.
