Cheers to 2014, Blessings for 2015!

Another year gone by, another year starting today.

Ready to see His hand and His work for us in this coming new year.

I am thankful we got to see the words He gave us at the beginning of 2014 all come to pass.

We waited on Him for those words, heard them clearly, surrounded by peace in our hearts...

and then held tightly to them throughout the year.

That's the power of a "word" for the year.

It's not just about a goal or a good thing to work towards...

when it comes from God, and it resonates deep within your spirit,

it becomes more than just that word.

It becomes something you can cling to, hope from, and rest in.

That's the goodness of a Father whose words to us do not return void.

And I'm thankful He showed us that again this past year.

The year before, 2013, was ridden with loss and heartache, and lots of grieving and questioning.

But when He spoke "Restoration" to us for 2014, I knew it was his heart for us.

I know He wanted to see so many things restored...brought back to life...revived.

And boy, did He!

(literally...giving us a BOY!) :)

So, we are still waiting for our prophetic words from His heart for this new year, though He has already been stirring things in us about 2015...and I can't wait to hear what they are.

To know He is faithful to what He tells me is so comforting.

I pray you and yours can find peaceful places in your hearts to hear from Him regarding your new year! Let Him guide you to where you can hold to grace for the things He wants to do.

Blessings in 2015, y'all!
