What are you going to do to improve your life this year? The Bible tells us that transformation isn't about massive, overwhelming change. It's about intentional, daily renewal. These small moments aren't insignificant. They're the seeds of radical change in your life.

Ephesians 4:22-24. “You were taught with regard to your former way of life to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires, to be made new in the attitude of your minds and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”

Take off the old, put on the new. Your life won't change unless you change something.

A thought, an attitude, an emotion, a desire, a routine or a habit. What if a small, very small change could literally change the direction of your life? Change your storyline, change how you think, feel even what you desire?

Is there an area of your life that's causing you a lot of pain right now? Or has God been speaking to you about doing something for him and you just haven't started yet? Maybe there's something you need to do to strengthen your daily relationship with God or with someone else.

Five minutes of appreciation to God and to people closest to you, family and friends. How big a change would that be? What did you thank God for today? Think about every day last week. If you did a gratitude journal, how many minutes would you log from last week that you were being grateful to God for something?

Or how about five minutes renewing your mind in an area where you struggle and we all have struggles. For example, maybe your struggles with fear or regret or guilt or shame. What if you took five minutes to look up journal and declare a new scripture every day, encouraging you to fear not, the most frequent command in the Bible because God knows this is one of Satan's greatest weapons against us.

How bold would you be by the end of the year? How much more peace would you have every day?

Just five minutes a day is 1,825 minutes a year over 30 hours a year growing stronger in an area where you're hurting or weak or touching the lives of others through gratitude, prayer, etc. How much better would your life be if you did that? You can literally change your life in five minutes a year from now, you'll spend 30 hours daily consistently renewing your thoughts, your beliefs, replacing harmful emotions with joy and peace, and finding healthy ways to fill the desires of your heart.
