This week I’m blogging over at @club31women about the good, new things God has for you in this new year!

Here's an excerpt:
2020, a hard year. Disappointments, illnesses, political turmoil, personal losses, racial unrest, pandemic fatigue, fears for the future.

But now?

As we move into 2021, be encouraged. God has something new and good for you. Link in bio!

Knows

“O Lord, you have searched me and known me." Psalm 139:1

God knows me even better than I know myself. He knows what I need today. He knows where I am struggling and He understands. Oh, the joy of being totally known, and in spite of that, still completely and thoroughly loved.

We are exhausted from the pandemic of 2020 which continues on, from a nasty election, political and racial riots, job losses, sicknesses, and just plain bad news. We stumble into this new year with trepidation for our kids and grandkids and the world in which they are growing up....

As I’ve thought about these challenges facing parents I’ve identified 3 crucial things I want to pray for God to develop in the lives of my kids and grandkids and those to come: Conviction, Character, and Courage. More on the blog - link in bio!

Lord you are jealous for me, for _____. It is a "love jealousy." So great is your love that you want me completely for yourself. To be wanted this much is hard to take in. May I walk today with the thought: You want me.

In this season, it is so important to fix our eyes on the hope of Christ and encourage others to do the same. Our One Word cards are designed to draw our attention to one character trait of the Lord.
