If you are like me, you probably made a few resolutions or at least set a goal for the new year. Exercise, eating right, and spending less are universal. But maybe you are ready for a change in the way you live your life.

What if I told you that you could change your life in three weeks?

I know, it sounds crazy. But the truth is you can change your life in a moment. Any time you make a decision to do something different it can result in a major life change.

Can I suggest three decisions that could change your life forever?

1. Pray

Begin the new year asking the author of life to show you the purpose of your life. And then keep the conversation going. The more you pray, the easier it will be and the more natural it will feel. In a few weeks, you will notice that your concerns for yourself will fade, and your prayers for others will become more passionate. Before long, you will find yourself praying throughout the day—even hundreds of “micro-prayers” for people as you encounter them. The nightly news and even your Facebook feed will fuel your prayers. Don’t be afraid. Just start the conversation.

2. Go

Okay, now this one will intimidate a lot of people. But another way to change your life is to get out of it for a few days. Go on a mission trip. Go see how others live. Go see what else God is doing in the world. Go, because staying requires nothing of your faith.

3. Give

Giving puts feet to our faith. Give your time, your talent and your treasure. Put yourself out there to be a difference maker in the world. Trust me, it is a win-win. The one to whom you give wins, and you win as well. If you don’t understand how, just try it out and you will see what I mean.
