A New Year, A Stronger Faith

 Everyone I know would likely agree that the year 2020 was an unusual, chaotic, stress-filled year, filled with much heartache, sickness, and loss. Yes, the year certainly was filled with those negative traits - - but there were some positives too. Sometimes you just have to look for the hidden blessings. 

For me personally, the most wonderful event of 2020 was the birth of my second, precious, miracle grandbaby. A true blessing and gift from God! 💜  And I know others also had blessings that happened during this tumultous year. So it wasn't totally a bad year. 

My hope for all of us who experienced a heartbreaking loss this year (mine was losing a family member to Covid) is that maybe---just maybe---our faith and trust in God has grown stronger. After all, I've heard it said many times that the more trials a person endures, the stronger they can become. 

As we enter a brand-new, hopefully better new year, may we all look to the Lord for guidance and strength, and may we have a stronger faith, no matter what this coming year holds for us. 

Happy New Year, my friends! May you follow the Lord and be blessed each day of 2021. 

The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knoweth them that trust in Him.
