Mysterious New Year so wrapped in reserve and surprise you have no reason to feel smug or even condescending. After all, the majestic God has full knowledge of you just  as He has of me. There is not an issue that you can evade. Furthermore, you are powerless to do anything to me that God does not permit. All He allows in His infinite wisdom is for my ultimate good and His greatest glory. Consequently, New Year you cannot trick of disillusion me by your baffling unexplainables or your feverish activity. My times are in the hands of God whose power is limitless and whose love for me is everlasting.

~The One Year book of Bible Promises, January 3

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the wonderful future he has promised to those he called. I want you to realize what a rich and glorious in inheritance he has given to his people.   ~Ephesians 1:18, NLT
