Let the Resolutions Begin...

Happy Happy New Year! I absolutely love the New Year! New beginnings...new adventures...new hope.

I got on facebook this morning to look at what people were saying about their good times last night and was surprised by all of the Hopeful posts! It is so encouraging to read that so many people have Hope for the New Year! I love it!

What is so amazing for me is that moment when as a Christian, you realize the Hope is there every single day. Every morning...His mercies are new each day...meaning...every morning...no matter what took place the day before...no matter what lead up to that moment...we get a new chance. Every day is a chance...to turn our lives around. This morning we are facing the year of 2011. The possibilities are endless. We can set new goals...we can try new things...we can reflect on the moments of the past however many years of things that didn't work...and re-do.

It is 1-1-11 friends! And we have a new beginning.

But guess what...

1-2-11 can be the same thing.

And 1-3-11.

And 1-4-11.

His mercies are new each day.

We have the opportunity as Christians...to continue on that pattern of new hope every single day.

So enjoy the feeling of new...the feeling of hope today and EVERY DAY!

We'll have bad days in 2011. We'll have bad moments. But the Grace of God is there for us no matter what.

NO MATTER WHAT.

Thank the Lord.

Happy New Year all!
