Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you!! A day of new beginnings. A day of new promises. A year full of hope!

I have a desire for each of us. Colossians 1:9-11

"do not cease to pray..and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. That you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power; unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness...."

I'm going to try to be thankful even in the tough times - there are reasons that we go through them - perhaps to toughen us up for the next tough time or to teach us lessons of life.

God doesn't "punish us" by putting us through the tough times - He is forming us.

So let's be "formed" in the way God would have us be. Don't ask God for guidance if we aren't willing to move our feet!
