Hello 2010.

I am highly aware that I should be studying right now.
In fact, I'm studying about the USA PATRIOT Act atm.
USA PATRIOT stands for Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act.

I know, what a great way to welcome my year.
Anyway, goodbye 2009 - hello 2010.
I'm not a big fan of new year resolution
Maybe I'm not very resolved. But...
Instead of thinking about the year ahead,
maybe we should take some time and reflect on the past year

I'm not talking about regrets or mistakes
I'm talking about the footprints in the sand.
Looking back, it seems only yesterday when we were counting down to 2009
The year back hasn't been easy
but it's been a year that has brought me forward in life
shoveling me further and further away from the baby I was

I still got a long way to go...
2010 is going to be a big year for a lot of us
Graduating from high school,
going on to university
There are so many different paths we can take...

But there is no need to fear
If His Word is the lamp upon your feet
And if you trust in His never changing love
His never failing promise
And his ever so secured hand
holding us...

And sometimes when I'm tired
I imagine Him carrying me in the midst of His palm
bringing me through
through it all...
above it all...

If only we'll stop fighting for our own way
