Well, here we are. July 2025. We’re halfway through the year. But, instead of saying, “Where has the year gone?”, I am going with, “Sweet! We still have half of the year left!”
Let’s take a little inventory. How is your word for 2025 coming? (do you even remember it?) Or, how is your resolution for 2025 doing? (did you even make one?)
I chose the word SOAR. Honestly, I have expereinced some moments of Soaring. And, some moments of plummeting.
We have a tendency to begin each year with a lot of hopes and anticipation that ,’THIS will be the year’. Until February.
February is when the scales don’t move. Attitudes revert back to the ‘old you’. All hopes seem dashed.
But NOT this year! I am here to remind you that you have 6 months to change things! 6 months to crush your goal. 6 months to turn this around.
For me, this is reaching mile 13.1 of the 26.2 miles in a marathon. The first half is just the beginning. The second half is where it gets real. More challenges. More frustration. More exhaustion.
But, when you overcome the mental, and remember where you have been, something inside of you kicks in. That voice whispers, “I CAN do hard things!”
God has equipped you with more gifts, and abilities, than you can think of. You have been fearfully and wonderfully made! (Psalm 139:13-16)
You do need to dig down deep! And you know what? YOU CAN!
It is halftime for 2025! You still have an entire 6 months to reach your goal. Drop your weight. Change your attitude. Make new friends. Develop your character. Listen to God. Build new relationships. Give more. Volunteer more. Pray more. Do more. Rest more. Think. Change. Repent. Refresh. Soar.
It’s Halftime. Go make a difference. Always Run By faith!!
