Jesus Calling Dec 31st

I cannot believe this year is ending tonight. But I am totally ready for a new year and another fresh start. I'm ready for new things to happen, people to change, and to keep on doing good in the world. It just feels weird to say "2013." New year's is a time that always feels strange to me. It's like we are just moving along, the days are the same as "last year." The world is always changing, but coming into the new year, nothing much changes. (If that makes sense.) But it is like it is a whole new time. It's just a tradition I guess.

I don't understand why we have to wait for the new year to make changes within ourselves and our routines. Why not change the day you realize you need to? 

Peace. I pray that you feel God's Peace in this coming new year. I pray that you will realize how much you really need Him in your life. I pray that you figure out that holding on to Him is truly the only way to get through anything. You and Him fit together like a perfect puzzle. You need Him, and He can fulfill those needs for you. You are empty. He is abundant. 

Hope on with Him and go for a ride, give Him a chance this year. Trust me, your life will change if you give thing to Him, trust Him, and just hold on.

Isaiah 9:6 (NLT)
For a child is born to us,

    a son is given to us.

The government will rest on his shoulders.

    And he will be called:

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

2 Corinthians 4:7 (NLT)

We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.

John 14:26-27 (NLT)

But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.

“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
