Today is a new day. In a few
dayshours it will be a new year. Each moment is a new moment to start over and begin again. God wants to walk with you. He wants to love you and help you make adjustments. He wants you to realize your potential. You don’t have to be famous, you don’t have to be rich, you don’t have to pay and you don’t have to be something you aren’t.
All you have to do is believe God is whom he says he is and will do what he promises to do. All you have to do is let him love you and commit to a personal relationship with him. You have to want to let him love you and want to love him back. He will only do what you are willing to let him do. Melinda Clements
Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past. Henry Ward Beecher
Good habits are not made on birthdays, nor Christian character at the New Year. The workshop of character is everyday life. The uneventful and commonplace hour is where the battle is lost or won. Mattie D. Babcock
Struggling with the ‘let-down’ after Christmas? Look under the Tree of Life, you’ll find an inexhaustible supply of gifts from the Prince of Peace waiting there for you to open the year round. Katherine Walden

Hearing His Voice 
I wish to express some areppciation to the writer for rescuing me from such a problem. After exploring throughout the online world and obtaining views which were not helpful, I figured my entire life was done. Living without the answers to the problems you have resolved as a result of your guide is a crucial case, as well as those which may have negatively affected my entire career if I had not encountered your blog post. That skills and kindness in playing with everything was important. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had not discovered such a subject like this. I can also at this time look forward to my future. Thanks for your time very much for your professional and effective help. I will not be reluctant to recommend your web blog to anybody who needs recommendations on this topic.

Thank you so much!! I’m so humbled that you thought of me, I really appreciate it. I’ve been kind of hit and miss with posts and catching up on my blog since Christmas, and this week we had a death in the family. But I will get the award up ASAP!

I couldn’t agree more about geitrarics. I miss sitting with some of the elderly individuals I used to help and they would tell me stories for hours about the things that they witness when they were younger, and the lives that they lived up to the point that they needed care. I have always felt that the elderly know how to live their lives better than anyone, and they for sure never take it for granted! Sometimes the people taking care of them are not good people though, and it always breaks my heart to see someone talking badly to an elderly man or woman.I like how you made a switch from little tiny babies that have no real experience with life, to elderly men and women who have lived life to its fullest and still have more life to share with others. Such opposites!

When asked how I spent my New Year’s Eve, I can tell everyone that I frantically washed cat yak out of my carpet in a few spots downstairs and then, again, upstairs, including my room! I managed to get the yak out of the carpet and myself into my Hello Kitty pajamas just before the stroke of twelve, which is in three minutes. Hopefully, this will symbolize that I have left behind all yukky things in 2012 and will welcome a new and CLEAN New Year! ta-da! Happy New Year and many blessings to you during this coming year!

Wow, you had a busy last few minutes of 2012! I’m glad the yukky was left behind before the New Year made its entrance. Here’s to a new and clean New Year, and many blessings for you each new day! I spent most of my New Year’s Eve cooking/baking to prepare for New Year’s Day, but I did enjoy some of the fruits of my labor while waiting for the ball to drop. Hopefully, that will symbolize that I won’t labor in vain in the New Year. Or something like that 🙂
