In case we can't do it on our own, the calendar starts again, a new january, a new february, et cetera. I am reminded that a new year brings 365 clean slates. How lucky am I? Or is it really luck? Maybe not. Could it be God whispering, "okay, another opportunity is yours! what are you going to do with it?" We are all called to make the most of each day, it's our choice. Will it be a day filled with positive statements and observations, or will we look toward the dark and contribute to the negativity that can surround us? We see what we expect to see, we attract what we are - we are more powerful than we will ever know.
So I kneel at the foot of the cross and repeat, whatnowlord? it's all good, as Julian said, "All shall be well."

re: welcome 2011
well, made it into another opportunity. made it into a new year, a new decade, what now Lord? A clean slate, 365 chances to live each day being true. How many days will I succeed to follow God's will for my life? How many days will I be able to keep my ego from getting bigger than my faith? How many days will I be able to listen more than talk, to smile more than frown, to be gratefull more than selfish? How many opportunities will I take to say I'm sorry, to look for the good, to forgive, to look at the bigger picture? If left just to me that answer would be overwhelmingly against me, but if I walk the days with God, then my chances just got better. WhatnowLord?
