PONDERING ON THINGS IN OUR HEARTS=NEW STARTS AND NEW BEGINNINGS

PONDERING ON THINGS IN OUR HEARTS=
NEW STARTS AND NEW BEGINNINGS


YESTERDAY was the feast
Of the HOLY FAMILY of
Jesus=Mary=and Joseph


I think SOMETIMES we FORGET
That while we RECOGNIZE them
As the Holy Family now=that
During LIFE=they ENDURED ALL
Things things that all FAMILIES go through


Finally=they were a WORKING
Class family=that endured GRIEF=Joseph's death=
And Jesus' tragedy=and relationship difficulties


“And Mary kept all these things=
PONDERING on them in her heart” Luke 2:16-21


As we CLOSE the book on 2017=
And MOVE into the future with HOPE=
The hope of STILL making our DREAMS
Come true


Let us REMEMBER to BLESS
Others=as we PONDER on all
The things in our lives


“The Lord BLESS YOU and keep you!
The Lord let his face
SHINE upon you


Be GRACIOUS to you!
The Lord look
Upon you KINDLY
And give you PEACE!” Numbers 6:22-27


Let us REMEMBER that
OUR FAMILIES too=can
CONQUER everything in life=
As we LIVE with the LOVE & FORGIVENESS
Of the HOLY FAMILY


The LOVE that Jesus=
Mary=and Joseph=
HAD for each other


So let us MOVE FORWARD
With the VIRTUES of the HOLY FAMILY
As we ponder the things
Of the PAST


Let them GO
And CREATE new starts and
BEGINNINGS for our FAMILIES=
For our friends=
And for OURSELVES


PONDERING the past=CREATING
NEW BEGINNINGS in our lives


“All people will fear-
They will PROCLAIM
The works of God


And PONDER
What he has done” Psalm 64:9


“Let the ONE
Who is wise
Heed these things


And PONDER
The LOVING DEEDS
Of the Lord” Psalm 107:43


I had the GREATEST PARENTS=
Who ever lived=
I have the greatest sisters=
COUSINS=extended family=and FRIENDS


I THANK GOD
For ALL he has-
BLESSED me with


And I thank the Lord
For the NEW BEGINNINGS=I
Will FIND in 2018


Because we are SONS=we are DAUGHTERS=
Of OUR loving Lord


Let us NOT forget
The SPIRIT of God=for 2018=
LIVING in our hearts


“.........So that we might
Receive ADOPTION as sons (and daughters)=


As PROOF you are sons
God sent the Spirit
Of his SON


Into our hearts
CRYING out='ABBA FATHER'” Galatians 4:4-7


May God help you as you PONDER
Your past=and BLESS YOU as you
Move FORWARD with your
NEW BEGINNINGS in 2018!


In Jesus' name and the name
Of GOD OUR FATHER
