Radiate the Beauty
For behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.—Song of Solomon 2:11–12 (ESV)
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!—2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV
Enter the new year committed to a new life! Look forward with wisdom you’ve gained from the past and the growth that you’ve experienced through forgiveness, patience and compassion. Get ready for the bountiful blessings God has in store for you. By God’s grace, “the old has gone, the new has come!”
Heavenly Father, because of Your strength, I can let go of the past and step forward with faith.
