The word that comes to my mind over and over as I think about a new year is Hope
And, the picture that comes to mind is a big, white canvas.
A whole year holds the good, the bad and the ugly,
and every bit of it counts in this journey that we call life.
God uses all of it to mold us and shape us more into his image.
None of it goes to waste.
I am full of hope for this new year,
and I can't wait to see those blank canvases filled with the colors of what your lives unfold in 2011.
~Happiest New Year~
