New Year....New Beginnings

Today is January 10th, our Jr. High program starts back up after a lengthy Christmas break, due to bad weather a week before we were supposed to end. The busyness of the coming months is just a mere few days away! I cant help wondering if this year be be any different from last year....and before I let my mind get ahead, I stop myself dead in my tracks. This year will be the same as the others if I let it be. But if I go with what is stirring in my heart, this will be a year of great impact in my community. Touching the lives of people who have no hope, joy, reason to live etc. sometimes ever a kind word is all someone needs to know that someone cares about them. Sometimes God allows us to go through hard trying times, to build our faith, to strengthen us, to make us totally dependant on Him. When we do, He will give us the victory, and w e move on.... The ladder part of 2009 was a time of trial and tribulation for me, unlike anything I have ever experienced before. I actually considered stopping what I have been doing for years now, to try something else, only to realize just recently that God has my best interests at hand. He has called me to do what I do, and He will equipe me to do what lies ahead. Nothing is impossible for Him. If we trust and obey Him, He will guide and direct our every step. Let this year be a year of new beginnings and dont look back, because the best is yet to come! Press On and GO FOR IT! God Bless! Shari
