December 31, 2015 I attended Watch Service at my church.
As the time went by, I grew more and more emotional and so many thoughts were going through my mind. I couldn't keep singing, I stopped and I wept!! I wept because I know I don't know what the future holds. I wept because I was afraid of losing people that I care for. I wept because I don't want to make the same mistakes in a new year and maybe I am leaving 2015 without blessings I should have by now. I scribbled out letters to God and I just couldn’t stopped crying.
I decided to make lists. (I love lists)! One list was titled 2015 and underneath I jotted some of the amazing things that happened or that I did that I had never done in years prior. The next list was titled 2016 and underneath it was a mini prayer to God. It actually cheered me up some. I know that all things have always and will always "work together for the good of them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).
While I did not foresee the good that came in 2015, the days still had come and gone. I do not know all that 2016 has to offer, but on this January 1st I claim more good days --in Jesus name. I want all the God has planned for me.
