I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13 NIV
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing . . . I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:18-19 NIV
We move into 2021 knowing that there may still be some hard things but we can have an expectancy and a hope that God is doing new, good things!
