New Year’s 2020-21

Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord:
though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
Isaiah 1:18
The heart of man plans his steps, but the Lord establishes his steps. Proverbs 16:9
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. Hebrews 10:24-25

Life was too busy over Christmas leaving me no time to write. Since then, my life has been filled with a healthy dose of heartache leaving me discouraged and quiet. By God’s grace, He swooped in this morning helping me to set my my mind on who He is and who I am in Him. He is God in the flesh and in Him, we are rescued! Hallelujah!
