“I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you, I said, “You are my servant, I have chosen you and have not rejected you.”

So do not fear, for I am with you, do not be dismayed, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand…”

Happy New Year!

I’ve never really been much of a goal setter…

It’s hard for me to look too far ahead…

For me.  To daily seek God’s presence; letting His sweet aroma surround my life, fills my heart and strengthens my soul…

 He gives me the strength to live in today….

I don’t mean that in a depressed kinda way… Just a realty for me; to be the best me I can be…

Dear Heavenly Father,

How I praise Your Holy name…

As I come before You this new Year, I lay my days at Your feet…

Surrendering all that I am, and seeking all that You are.

While I am not setting goals, I am dreaming dreams of being the best me I can be…

Please, Oh Lord, as I seek Your Holy goodness In my life, help me to let go of what was and look forward to what will be…

I truly want to be the best me I can be…

Living to love You…

Living to love others with al of my heart…

Free to laugh…

Free to trust…

Free to give…

Free to serve…

Living in the light of Your goodness…

Extending Your  hand of hope…

Free to be the best me I can be…

In Jesus Name,

I pray,

Amen…

It’s all by Your grace..

Your love softens my heart and soothes my soul, which in turn brings comfort and joy.

May I be a reflection of such warmth and gentle kindness in I say and all I do..

Forgive me, Father, when I fall short, and bless those who may have been hurt by my words or actions…

Thank You for today…

Thank You for Your healing power, and cleansing grace..
