This is my first blog of the new year 2013 and I am excited about it!! YAY!! Normally I would have went to church on New Years Eve but I stayed home and meditated about how good God has been to me in 2012 and began to thank God for my future and the great things He has prepared for me. There is no other name under heaven but the name of Jesus by which man can be saved(Acts 4:12). To Him be glory, dominion and power forever and ever and ever…………………………………………

What I did do was to reflect on this past year and realize that I have many things to be thankful for: My life, health and strength, family, business, church family, my creative side(which I’m still discovering,) my successes and failures and many, many more.
I was most thankful for my mom, she started dialysis this year which was very hard for us all to accept. But God is keeping us all!! I am grateful to God that she is doing well and has lost a lot of weight which is good for her. I’m working on shedding pounds myself! One thing I learned in 2012 is that God is a keeper of your mind-body, soul and spirit. He will keep your mind sane and give you peace if you desire peace. (You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you.Isaiah 26:3) When we need help whether it is financially or any other help, I learned it is OK to ask for help. Sometimes pride will stop people from asking for help because of fear (False Evidence Appearing Real). It is a blessing and answered prayers when people are able to help you. When we need help, this is God’s way of humbling us sometimes and to help us learn better ways of managing our lives or better ways of doing things.
When we pray, we don’t know how God is going to answer our prayers, but just know that He will answer your prayer. Just know that God is faithful and will continue to be faithful the more we trust in Him and Him alone. .
Although I don’t make new years resolutions I am setting goals to better myself this year. There are plans I will be implementing in my life this year to boost my health, business and art. As I thought about my past and thank God for the good and the bad I felt the peace of God settle on me and I knew instantly everything is going to be beautiful and all right. Be blessed and just know God is always at work in our lives and He has not left you nor forsaken you. When we draw close to Him, He will draw close to us. Be still and know that He is God!!That’s true peace!!
