Unspoiled and unsoiled, the new year lies before us-365 days of golden opportunity. 

We stand at the dividing of two streams– one called Yesterday, – and the other, Tomorrow. 
We know every bend and every turn in the river Yesterday– but the river Tomorrow stretches out into an unknown future.

We are living in a world that is far different from our world of Yesterday. We are living in troubled and difficult times.

But we need to remember that the new year is a venture into the unknown– and we are going to have to rethink our lives. 

This new year affords us an opportunity to take spiritual inventory of our lives to see– if our spiritual resources are sufficient for the needs and demands of the coming days of trial, temptation and sorrow. 

In the midst of all this, there is but one hope—the hope that Jesus Christ is coming again. 
Without that hope– we cannot face the future.

“God, thank You for this new year. Though the future is unknown, I look forward with expectancy and hope to what You have in store for me because You are good and You are never going to let me down. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
