It’s December already! And it actually feels like it in Houston this year – nice and cold. It’s during this time of year that I really begin to think over the past year and see how God has moved…and what a year it was!
Some highlights from 2006:
Moving out of our apartment…moving in with my in-laws…moving out of their place…and finally moving into our first house…
Selling both of our junky cars…on the same day…and buying our first new car together…
Leaving my job as Dr. Jung’s office manager…and beginning full-time ministry here at SBC…
Welcoming our first niece into the world…and finding out that another baby is waiting in the wings…
Gaining weight…losing weight…and gaining even more weight…
Every year comes with its ups and downs and 2006 was no exception. Gina and I have been through a lot of tough times this past year as well as times of celebration. But through it all I see God’s unwavering faithfulness to me and my family. Not because I’m special and not because I deserve it – only because of His grace and love for me. I am surer every year that God, my Heavenly Father, has my life completely in His hands. He is truly Good.
I encourage you to take a moment or two, as this year winds down, to look back and see how God has carried you through good times and bad. Rejoice over the good and try not to dwell on the bad.
And always, always give God praise!
