New Years Bring New Frontiers

I'm running toward that glimmer of light flickering faintly off in the distance. You know, the one that signifies the end of a tunnel, a dark passageway for this journey I'm on that brings me from one side of this colossal mountain to the other, out of the shadows and into the radiant sunshine. The comforting rays falls down on my skin like a thick mist. Hope and joy perforate into all areas of my life as they enter my heart and circulate through the blood stream to my surrounding organs. The entire body receives them gladly, like a vitamin sent from above. This is but a glimpse of the future God has promised me. May all glory and honor be returned to the one who sits on the throne and overflows with abundant love, mercy and grace!

I have great expectation for this new year, but handle it as if it were merely a new day. Each is a gift from God and should be approached as such.
