Daily and Weekly Christian Inspiration
As I look back on this memory from a past New Year celebration in 2014 it
causes me to be so thankful for the restored health the Lord has continued to bless me with.
Psalm 103:2-5 Bless the Lord, O my soul,and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities;who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction;who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things;so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Leaving the Lone Star State to fly back to the Big Apple wrapped in the warmth of happy memories and yet with sweet tears of sadness that always comes when leaving family. Shakespeare said it well “Parting is such sweet sorrow.”
And until we meet again,
May God hold you
In the hollow of his hand.
From “An Irish Blessing”
We often experience a bit of a Christmas anti-climax once Christmas Day has passed. All that planning, shopping, build up etc and then its all over in just a few hours! We may find it hard to maintain our Christmas joy especially during this often lost week between Christmas Day and New Year.
May it help you to remember that each new day is a gift from God. Each breathe is a gift. His gift is a lifetime gift for all seasons.
Acts 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being.
Take a few moments from all the hustle and bustle of the season to be inspired as you listen to the Hallelujah chorus sweep over your soul as it restores the spiritual joy of Christmas.
