In His Heart: The 2020 Prayer Pledge // Day 1
A new decade dawns with this new day. The Light of the World brings forth new light and new mercies as we pass from one year to the next.
Perhaps you're greeting 2020 with a heart full of hope—eager to embrace possibilities and strive to achieve fresh goals. Perhaps you're limping into 2020—the last year leaving you feeling defeated physically, spiritually, emotionally, relationally, or mentally. Perhaps you're entering 2020 with trepidation, confusion, or apathy—uncertain about your direction for the next ten years.
Wherever you find yourself on this first day of the year, sister, you are in His Heart.
