Happy New Year!
It is a good time to reflect and to be thankful for all the ways that God's grace has been revealed in this past year of 2006. Here are just a few:
~ Lots of transitions for myself and family....new job, my elderly father moving in with us and our taking on the role of caregivers, children becoming adults and entering new territories of decision making....and God has been fully present in the midst of it all.
~ Learning to watch and see the Lord show up in lowly "stable-like" situations as well as in the glorious "aha" moments....and grateful that He is Lord of all of our daily happenings.
~ Experiencing a new depth of compassion as I work with the terminally ill and the daily challenges that each of these families experience. And all of this leading to a new defining of what is really important in life....a new place of prioritizing my time and concerns.
May the Lord bless each one of you as you experience the Lord in new ways in this New Year.
Grace to you!
