Happy New year 2023.

I didn't think I'd make it to 2023.  Years ago I thought 2010 might be stretching it.  But dear friend, we did, and I truly  don't want to miss what God has ahead for me, for all of us - and yet, sometimes I fear it.  Don't you?

Sometimes I feel more than a tiny bit afraid of what this year will bring, but the word I hear within my fear is - TRUST!

I heard the song again this morning,  "Trust His heart." sung by Cynthia Clawson.  You can find it on YouTube.  It really says what I wish for all of us.  "When you can't see His hand, trust His heart."

Can you do that, can you trust God's heart?  I believe you can - and I can.  He's proven time and again that He is powerful, He's just, and He's good and loving enough to be trusted.

When you sit on a chair, you may believe it will hold you.  

But,

when you reach for the Savior, 

you know His arms will enfold you.

When you're tired of the day, with its sin on display,

When your thoughts circle round and the sleep is not found. 

Then there's only one way to end every day 

Only one word brings sleep on the way

Only one God

Trust Him.
