2012….it has come upon us rather quickly, don’t you think?  A new year, with new possibilities, teaching moments, learning opportunities for all who will see & hear.  As our Pastor asked, “Are you ready?”  I think to myself, yes, as ready as I will ever be.  But, how would I become “more ready?”  I become readier, is that a word?  Yes, more ready the closer I get to Jesus.  The more I spend time with Him in prayer, in His word, in pondering the things He says, the more I am ready.  How?  you say…well when I choose to spend time in His word I learn more about His character, the things He desires of me & for me.  And….how to take hold of His promises & provision for not only me, but our family.  There’s nothing like sitting at the feet of Jesus & knowing that He chose you, loves you with an everlasting love.  Like the best Dad ever, I can see Him smiling over me, (not only me, but all who have taken Him as Saviour) and saying, “That’s My girl!” 

To be loved like that makes me ready for come what may.  Jesus holding me up, & knowing my heavenly Father can walk me through….come what may!
