At the beginning of each New Year, most people are looking forward to a good year ahead. Many have “resolutions” or goals in hopes that doing certain activities will help them achieve a good or better year. And we all cheer each other on by saying, “Happy New Year!”
As the New Year arrives, an old habit of mine is to look back on the past year and remember God’s blessings. But sitting here today, on January 1, it is a bit more difficult for me to do that this year, in light of losing my wife just one month ago.
But, as I moved the sadness ever so slightly aside. I began reflecting on a number of things from this past year to tell God, “Thank You.” It was indeed heartwarming and encouraging for me remembering some blessings I had forgotten.
Regardless of what kind of year you had, I would encourage you to take some time to reflect and then give God the thanks He deserves for His blessings to you in 2023.
And by the way, after pausing my recording of the His Word podcast for a few weeks, I’m back. Below are links to the two most recent.
