It's the Eve of a New Year!
I love countdowns, don't you? Haha.The whole world is celebrating this important event! Without doubt, everyone is in such eagerness to see the clock strike 12:00 and hear the "gong" that will officially mark the entrance into a new, blessed year -2009. =)
2008 has been such a fruitful year for me! A year of many new beginnings and new trends. I must say that God has taught me a great deal throughout this year. I had many firsts this year, many priceless lessons, and many cherishable moments. =)
As many priceless lessons there are, one of the most vital lesson I've learned this year is summed up in the following quote:
When we ask God for strength,
He gives us difficulties to make us strong.
When we ask God for wisdom,
He gives us problems to solve.
When we ask God for prosperity,
He gives us brain and brawn to work.
When we ask God for courage,
He gives us troubled people to help.
When we ask God for favors,
He gives us opportunities
In truth we received nothing we wanted...
But instead, everything we needed!
Isn't He a wonderful God? He works in ways we cannot see, ways beyond our human- mind. We tend to be short-sighted, but our God is a far-sighted God! So, as the year draws to an end, let us look back one last time and be thank God for His goodness, His grace, and His mercy! Not to forget all the lesson that you have learned, remember it and carry it to the New Year 2009.
With that, let us together usher into a New Year with great confident and assurance, knowing that God has prepared a wonderful and blessed year for each an everyone of us!
So, put on your seat belts tight! Brave yourself! We are off onto a whole new adventure! =P
Have a blessed New Year's Eve and God bless!
