It is hard to believe that 2011 is almost over with and that 2012 is just around the corner! This year has flown by so quickly. And, as I look over this past year, I have SO much to be thankful for. And, with the new year coming, I may not know every thing that it holds for me, but I am anticipating it and trusting that the Lord will give me another great year. I don’t think that I can say that I’ve ever had a “bad year”. I have may have faced some pretty rough trials in years past, but through it all God had His hand on me the whole time. He has never let me down. He has never failed me. He has never turned me away nor turned away from me. He is a great and might God and I give Him ALL the glory, honor and praise for the blessings past and also for the ones to come. How do I know that there are blessing to come?
Proverbs 28:20 KJV, “A faithful man shall abound with blessings…” I intend to be be faithful to Him in the coming year. I want to be firmly planted in His Word. And, I want to be more steadfast in prayer and reading the Word. If I do these things, the Word promises me that I will abound with blessings. That means that the blessings will be abundant, great and strong (according to the Hebrew Lexicon).
Knowing all this, just encourages me to work harder this next year at being a better child of God. And, to work harder as making a difference in the lives around me. He has done so many great things for me and He deserves the best that I can give. ♥
