| HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! |
Hello Everyone!! As we all wrap up the year of 2012 tonight I just want to wish you all a happy New year! What was one of your favorite things about this past year? Now my next question what was one thing you didn't like about this past year? Let me tell you all something. Every year has its ups and downs and sometimes when were in those down moments we sometimes ask the question "why" well as many of you know I recently had a change in my life I moved from my old town up to Ankeny and I was questioning why we had to move but later during the change I realized that God had a plan and I love where God has brought me! I am home schooled and i love it not just because I get to stay home but because its not just the learning I like its the fact that I get to see my family more and I get to be closer to them! So what I am saying is that this past year maybe has had its downs but there is one man who has walked this earth many years ago and came to give us a new life so that we may have no more sorrow or pain or hurt but have joyous life and EVERLASTING LIFE with a God who gave you life through your savior Jesus Christ! I want to share 2 verses with you.
My first verse comes from Ecclesiastes 3:
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
So whatever happened in 2012 wiether it was a joyous event or a sorrowful event it happened for a reason. Every season has its reasons.
My next verse comes from Isaiah 43:16
“This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
What this verse to me is saying is that the past has happened and He is making all things new.
Which brings me to show you one of my favorite songs that talks about just that how He is making all things new.
So heres the song its called "All things new" by Elevation Worship
I hope this song touches your heart the way it has mine
So to wrap up here I want to end with another verse from 2 Corinthians 5:17
This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
May you all be blessed and have a great night celebrating not only a new year but a new life through your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Blessings to all
