So it's a brand new year...almost. Just a few more hours until 2011. Will it be full of hope...love...joy...all that you dream of? Most likely there will be good times and challenging times--that's life. But maybe, just maybe, it's time to "wake up" to some things in our lives.
In the quiet of a winter day, think about what you really want in this next year, your big dreams and your little ones. They all matter. Then BELIEVE that things could be different. We do our part; God does His part and amazing things can happen.
Your dreams of the future may seem to be asleep now, but they can arise. And like you stir and rustle and finally get outta bed...your hopes and dreams can get up and get going too.
It's a new year, and it's time for some things in your life to wake up. I'm hoping they will in mine.
Arise
Snowfall on tall pines,
Sunrise and stirring
Of quiet and big dreams
As a new year awakens.
Dark-covered winter with
Dormant believing
Leads joyfully into
Spring’s hope-filled returning
When flowers and faith
Resurrect from earth’s slumber
Alive and reminded
Of God’s faithful goodness.
