Come to Me with a teachable spirit, eager to be changed. A close walk with Me is a life of continual newness. Do not cling to old ways as you step into a new year. Instead, seek My Face with an open mind, knowing that your journey with Me involves being transformed by the renewing of your mind. As you focus your thoughts on Me, be aware that I am fully attentive to you. I see you with a steady eye, because My attention span is infinite. I know and understand you completely; My thoughts embrace you in everlasting Love. I also know the plans I have for you: plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Give yourself fully to this adventure of increasing attentiveness to My Presence.
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. —Romans 12:2
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” —Jeremiah 29:11

Start this year fresh with an open mind and an open heart. God wants us to be pliable to His molding hands. We must seek to be transformed by God and ask Him to reshape our lives. God knows everything about us, our pains and weakness from last year as well as our future in 2013. God wants to help us, all we have to do is open our minds and our hearts and let Him in.
No matter what type of battle we face: weight loss, gambling, foul language, etc, God can transform us. When we give our lives to Him and let Him be in control of the situation we will start to feel His presence shape and mold our lives.
So give your resolution to God. Let Him be in control of your weakness. That is the only way you shall overcome.
