Almost the end of another year.
In a few minutes the hands of time will move us into the new but for now, I am looking back over 2018. The year to CHOOSE.
There are lots of choices we make in life. And this year was full of choices. Some I liked and others I didn't and then there were the circumstances in which I had no influence but the choice of how I would respond.
Choose Joy.
Choose Grace. (This one I put my wall as a reminder that ALL is grace.)
Choose Life.
Choose to serve.
Choose whom you will serve.
This was a hard year for so many reasons.
This year we faced loss on many levels and in multiple ways.
Yet, I choose to trust in the One in whom I have placed ALL of my hope. I choose to follow even when the end is unclear. I choose peace in the midst of the storm.
I choose joy, through the tears in which I end 2018, but filled the hopefulness of all that 2019 will bring.
