Happy NEW YEAR!

Can you believe 2013 is already here? I think one of the best things about a new year is that you get to reflect on the past year and look forward to the coming year. God truly has been merciful, gracious, long-suffering and loving to me, even though I do not deserve it.

The blessings he bestows upon me daily are innumerable and many times, unfortunately, I can easily take these blessings for granted.

There are many blessings I could mention, but here are a few of my top favorites:

1) God's love
2) My salvation
3) My husband - his love, humor and servant's heart
4) My family - their love
5) My church and her faithfulness
6) My friends - their kindness
7) My pastors - their guidance and direction
8) My Ministries - a vessel that is able to be used of the Lord
9) My house - a place to come home to
10) My husband's job - provision
11) My dog - faithfulness
12) My health - 'nuff said

Although I do not know what is in store for my family and I in 2013, I do know that "he(Jesus)hath done all things well."

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

As I enter into 2013, I pray that I remain faithful to the Lord, and his work, as I wait for his return. Lord, come quickly.

May 2013 be filled with blessings, lessons and love from above!
