A New Year! Welcome 2007!


A new year always feels so exciting. For some reason, I feel anything is possible. Maybe relaxing and spending holiday time with family refreshes the year end deadening sense or simply I'm a cronic procrastinator and a new year wipes the old slate clean. Whatever the reason, I welcome the new year with open arms.

In Church on Sunday, one of the speakers shared this quote..."God does not give us overcoming life, but gives us life as we overcome."

Life is wonderful. Life is full of adventures, challenges, and great experiences. Some are more strenuous and trying than others but the growth and experiences are necessary. As they make us who we are and need to be. They make us the children of God that are purified to return back to Him if obediantly righteous in this mortal world. Festering in my trials is easier than living them, but living them is the greatest adventure of all.

What will 2007 be? What adventures will occur? I do not know. But I will embrace what comes and enjoy the journey. Time flies too fast to not cherish it. So, Welcome 2007!
