This sounds quite hard, but you probably would all agree with me that, in as much as most of us usually love to anticipate any given new year, the unknown is usually what we anticipate. No one ever sees what packages any new year intends to bring along for any individual, family, community or nation.
Nevertheless, God promised in His Word: "And I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them. ~ Isaiah 42:16.
Amidst all of the pomp and glorious celebrations, it's best not to forget the most vital exercise; and that is, to begin intensely waiting upon God for His leadership, directions and guidance for the new year. None of us can see ahead.
We can fulfill purpose and achieve the highest security, peace and joy by following God's directions through.
May we fulfill purpose as we enter into another year and may we journey safely in Jesus mighty name.
