End of the year reflection questions

End of the year reflection questions

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog. Thank you so much for clicking this link, I pray that you continue to enjoy the love of God in this season and forever. Amen. 2020 is around the corner, can you believe it?

It's a few days to the end of the year and I really love this time of the year. It’s time to stop, breathe and look back at the year. For me, I try not to beat myself up about goals I didn’t quite reach. It's no use crying over split milk. 

Did you make a list of things to achieve at the beginning of this year? Find your list and let’s see how much you achieved. If you didn't achieve everything as planned, don't be too hard on yourself. Be kind to you, you deserve it. Celebrate the ones you achieved no matter how big or small it is.

In a few days, people will be breaking their piggy bank and revealing how much they were able to save, perhaps too much happened this year that make you financially handicap. It's okay, next year is another opportunity to plan things out.  You’re doing better than you think.

I love the preparation leading up to the new year because I am an advocate for fresh beginnings. If you don’t like it because of one reason or another, I need you to look at it as a blank canvas. A blank canvas comes with endless possibilities. 

Psalm 90:12 (NIV) Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

 Repeat after me: This is the perfect time to reflect on the past year and get ready for the new year!

Here are 15 end of the year reflection questions to help you prepare for the new year:


  1. What prayer requests were answered this year? (Count your blessings, name them one by one)
  2. What am I most proud of this year?
  3. What goals didn’t I complete this year? Why?
  4. How many souls did I win for the Kingdom of God this year?
  5. What was the favourite compliment I received this year?
  6. How did I show God’s love and grace to those around me?
  7. How did I grow this year?
  8. Where and how did God work in my life this past year?
  9. What prayer requests still need to be prayed through?
  10. How are my relationships? With my parents? With my siblings? With my friends? With my significant other?
  11. If I had to describe my year in 3 words, what would they be?
  12. Who do I need to thank for their role in my life this year? (Send them a thank you message)
  13. What was the most important lesson I learned this year?
  14. What do I deserve a pat on the back for?
  15. What single thing do I plan to do next year that will matter most in ten years? In eternity

With this information, you can think about the changes you want to make for the upcoming year.
Take time to chew over these questions. Write your answers down and find opportunities where you can share your learnings. To make this extra fun, you can share a post on Facebook, twitter on Instagram using #ReflectionswithBibilamour04.and tag me! Feel free to comment below!

Do’s and Don’ts of a spiritual fast

Do’s and Don’ts of a spiritual fast  By Bibi Babatunde-Ikotun Hello, welcome to my blog. If you clicked on this link it’s either you’re fasting already or are planning to fast. The good thing is you’re planning to have an effective fast by seeking all the information you can get on this. I won’t waste much of your time and I’ll get into it. Don’ts of fasting -  Have a Transactional mindset : A long time ago I thought fasting was about doing something so God will bless you. This led to a string of disappointment because I never got what I wanted from him. After all, I deprived myself for God but He didn’t do his part. We must first understand that fasting is not to move God, it’s to help us align with the move he’s made. The bible says in Ephesians 1.3 (NKJV) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. God is always on our side, we need not deal with him on a transaction basis. ...

What does it mean to be complete in Christ?

What does it mean to be complete in Christ? When you look at yourself, what do you see? Do you see someone who is imperfect and lacking in many areas? Do you sometimes find yourself thinking these thoughts? God is angry with me. I’m too dirty and damaged for Him to accept me. Why would God want to be with me when I’m a hot mess. Let me give you a secret, it doesn't matter how you feel or what you think. All that matters is what God has said in His word. His word says you are Complete in Christ! You are whole! Nothing missing, nothing lost, nothing broken! This is not by your deeds or something you are on your own. This is because you're in Christ!  Are you in Christ? Colossians 2:9-10 (NKJV) For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead [a]bodily; 10 and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all [b]principality and power. Colossians 2:9-10 (TPT) For he is the complete fullness of deity living in human form. 10 And our own completeness is now found in him . We are co...
