One Step at a Time...

Happy New Year and Welcome, 2019! 

As we 'walk' into a new year, while it can be a time of exciting beginnings, dreams, and opportunities...it can also be a time of uncertainty, endings, and the unknown. 

Sometimes, the abundant & daunting weight of endless opportunities is so overwhelming we get a case of 'analysis paralysis' - unable to move forward, towards, and into our destiny and purpose.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, however, sometimes we are in such a hurry to leave the past, with its pain, disappointments, and mistakes, behind us that we embrace & rush down a path we were never meant to follow.

And sometimes, hopefully more times than not, we opt for the path in the middle...where & when we have faith, trust, and hope in the Almighty, the One who has a plan for us, who gives us a peace that surpasses ALL understanding, who is working all things together for us, and who can do exceedingly & abundantly more than we can think or ask, that we are able to rest & lean into the process. 

We can rest because God knows all. His ways are not ours. His timing is perfect. His promises are yes & amen, without expiration, and He is in control. All that is required of us is belief and an obedience to go forth, one step at a time, per se.     

May you walk confidently & boldly into all that God has waiting for you this new year!
