I am so excited about this New Year!

While I get to celebrate a  New Year of Life,

The world celebrates New Beginnings;

New Goals;

New Dreams;

New Opportunities.

And I bask in the knowledge that I serve a Living God

Who makes dreams come true,

Right before my eyes.

I am trusting for great things to come this year

As He turns everything around for our good!

Wishing you God's Very Best in 2014

I can't wait to discover what He has in store!!!!!

With Gratitude On my Birthday,

2013 in Review: Count your Struggles or your Blessings?

Indeed, this image sums 2013 up for me!!! It reminds me that I didn't have it all together and that there were a lot of difficult times this year. But who wants to focus on the struggles as we approach a New Year? Why not key in to the blessings, grace and favor of God rather than the challenges of life? Well, today I discovered a simple way to do this from an idea shared by 95.1 Shine FM on Facebook.

I am so excited about this idea because it meshes so well with an outreach I partook in this Season: Jars of Joy Baltimore. To top it all, I was also given a Jar, something I cherish, albeit so simple! I feel so special to have my own jar, and now I can put it to good use!

Ready for those "Pressin' Blessings"
No excuses; just jot 'em down!

So we've coined it our Good Year Jar

What will you call yours?

Awaiting the Awesome Wonders of 2014!
