May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13
What does it look like to be filled with all joy and peace? Or to overflow with hope?
Well, that’s what I wish for you this new year. I think you’ll agree with me when I say, we could all use a little more joy, peace, and hope in our lives!
A man’s heart plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps.
Proverbs 16:9-HCSB
Life never turns out quite the way we thought it would. It’s comforting to know that He is the one who, as other translations put it, “decides where we will go“, “guides each step“, or “directs his steps and makes them sure“. If God is the one directing each step I take, then I can more fully enjoy today, knowing that I’m right where He wants me.
Despite the harsh temperatures and cutting wind, the sun still draws me out of my house to capture a few beautiful winter shots.
