5 bible verses to keep close in the new year
New year, same God 🙏🏽 Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and hope day one has been a great heartfelt start to the year. Scripture on new beginnings is always encouraging and we pray that this year is filled with hope, joy and success for you all.
We are kick starting 2023 with our first blog sharing a few of our favourite bible verses to hold onto while working on ourselves, on our goals - words and truths to remind us of what really matters, to keep us grounded, to encourage us and remain hopeful during times of self doubt, uncertainty and hardship.
SALAMO 65:11
“Ua e faaee i le tausaga le palealii o lou agalelei; o ou ala na tautulu ai mea lololo”.

Our take from this verse: Head into 2023 strong in faith and fully trusting God’s plans for us.
FAATAOTO 14:30
“O le loto lelei, o le ola lea o le tino; a o le mataua, o le mea e pala ai ivi lea”
"A peaceful mind gives life to the body, but jealousy rots the bones” Proverbs 14:30

FAATAOTO 16:9
“O le loto lelei, o le ola lea o le tino; a o le mataua, o le mea e pala ai ivi lea”

Our take from this verse: To fully know that we can at anytime pray to God for strength + guidance and He we lead the way. Pray and follow His commands.
ISAIA 40:31

”But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength; they will fly up on wings like eagles; they will run and not be tired; they will walk and not be weary”. Isaiah 40:31
Our take from this verse: Go into 2023 with the power of God behind you, and you'll come out even stronger at the end.
