It's a brand new year
With three hundred and sixty five days
Ring it in with cheer,
Well wishes, and lofty goals always
May you strive to be like the Savior
Who grew in stature and strength
While making choices that men favor
As He learned the Father's will, to do at length
Luke 2: 52
And Jesus grew in wisdom (intellectually) and stature (physically), and in favor with God (spiritually) and man (socially/emotionally).
Lofty goals- the pursuit of goals where you see the bigger picture:
Mark 12:30-31
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart (emotionally), with all your soul (spiritually), with all your mind (intellectually- wisdom), and with all your strength (physically).’ [a]This is the first commandment. 31 And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
