This is officially my first post of the new year! I have safely passed the 40 mark and am well on my way to becoming an old (or at least middle-aged) woman!
Last year I decided to choose a theme verse for the year. I often repeated it when I needed a bit of encouragement and felt like there was no "goodness" left in this life. This was my verse: "I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." Ps. 27:13
I can't even begin to tell you all the goodness I saw in the last year, but reading through my earlier posts was a good reminder.
Towards the end of last year I thought it would be nice to have a theme verse for 2010, as well. I started asking God for a verse. Nothing came to mind immediately and I thought, If nothing comes up, I'll just keep the same one for it would be well worth keeping! However, a couple days later God gave me these verses: Isaiah 45:2-3 "I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name."
I can't wait to see how God is going to do this for me! What a great and awesome God I serve and he is fighting my battles for me!
