Happy Sunday! Here’s some encouragement for your week.

 

Happy New Year! It’s hard to believe that after all the hustle and bustle associated with Christmas that it’s already time to usher in a new year. And with that comes even more chaos: putting away decorations, figuring out what to do with Christmas cards and new gifts, trying to organize things from the old year so we can move forward with the new one, etc.

It's hard to focus on new beginnings when we're still clinging to the past, including our past worries. Share on X Those always seem to follow us wherever we go, don’t they? Perhaps 2022 can finally be the year that we do something about that and leave those past concerns where they belong: in the past!

Exodus 23:20 is a reminder that it truly is possible to move forward with confidence, because the Lord has already prepared it for us, trusting that God has everything under His control. And that truth can give us peace for the new year to come. A determination to face each day, trusting God for the comfort and strength needed for everything we’ll encounter in 2022.

 

Lord, help me to remember daily that, no matter the circumstances, You are always in control. Amen.

 

Have a blessed day. Gentle hugs to all of you. ?
