Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:19 ESV)
We’re at the end of 2019 in just a couple of days. Crazy, isn’t it? Whether it’s been a good year for you or a difficult one, God is promising something NEW for you. He is with you and will guide you. He will make a way! Revelation 21:5 expounds on the above theme: “And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” (ESV)
Let’s hear it for 2020! I’m excited to step into this new year, this new decade, and see how God makes things new.

Renate says
Happy New Year Valerie! Impossible to imagine in a few days it will be 2020. I have been reminiscing and looking through lots old photos – remembering the last half century and more. In 2020 my mom, my role model of a Proverbs 31 woman, would be 100 years old. On January 9 my youngest son will turn 30, which means that in May I will be 7 decades old. And in 2020 our oldest son will celebrate his 20th anniversary. Thanking God for a new day, a new week, a new month, a new year, and a new decade. Best Wishes.
Paula Marie says
