A new year calls for celebration! The slate has been swiped clean; the floor has been mopped spotless; second, third, fourth (and even beyond) chances are once again being given. We have been given another 365 and 1/4 days to give this thing called Life another go. I am incredibly optimistic about 2013. This is going to be such a great year!
Now, I know what you're thinking. Everyone starts out so positive. What about when 2013 brings sorrow and anguish? I have no doubt that 2013 will certainly have its sorrows. But it will also have many, many joys. I know this because God has promised us blessings in Life! He gave His Life so we could have Life, and have it more abundantly! (John 10:10)
God knows the plans that He has laid out for us. HE CREATED THOSE PLANS! He has it all figured out from the moment we were conceived to the moment we meet Him in His House. He has plans for us to prosper, not just get by, but PROSPER. What good news! (Jeremiah 29:11)
This is why I can be so optimistic about 2013. This is why I can smile at the future (just like Proverbs tells me to do as godly woman in Proverbs 31). So my friends, do not be afraid. God is an awesome God. He will never leave us nor forsake us.
2013, bring on the good times!
