Bible Verse for December 29th.

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; He will neither fail you nor abandon you.

Deuteronomy 31:8

NLT Bible

As we say goodbye to another year, it's a good time to reflect on our accomplishments, failures and unrealized goals over the past twelve months. We acknowledge our successes and our mistakes but above all, we thank God for His presence, provision, protection and preservation. We may have gone through ups and downs, but through it all, He was always at our side. 

Without God, we may have been stuck in situations with no way out or left to fend for ourselves. Things may not have been perfect, but we survived and made it through yet another year. There is so much to thank God for. Without Him, we would be lost and alone. 

Thank you Lord for Your abiding presence. As I reflect on this year, I'm thankful that through it all, You've been with me. You deserve all the glory, honour and praise. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

Be Blessed!
