Happy New Year, Sweet Readers!
We made it through and here we are: January 1, 2022!A Brand New Year... a Fresh New Start... and I think all of us are ready for it --maybe even more than in years past!
This has become a somewhat anticipated post around here... but, as I've said before, it was a tradition long before I started this blog (which was a long, long, LONG time ago!) So, long before I wrote this New Years Day post here for the public, I practiced this routine in private --and year after year, it still proves to be... True... Helpful... Accurate... and Encouraging!
I know we have all felt a bit of trepidation and hesitant Hope during the approach of a New Year for the last few trips around the sun. But I have to say, I feel ACTUAL Hope and Joyful Anticipation rising up as we enter into 2022!
It feels like all the Hard & Heavy from the past several years have been leading up to Now! NOW is the time... THIS is the year!
Before we dive into whatever God has to say about'22, let's briefly look back at 2021...
