ORIGINAL ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER©
The year drags to an end, bringing with it a load of baggage,
Times filled with angst, depression and frustration,
But those things are all easily consumed by the Creator of the universe,
Through Him alone, we can achieve fulfillment through adversity,
Joy, even in times of great difficulty,
Peace, through the contentment of reading what He has to say to us,
We never carry that baggage alone,
He is right there beside us,
Lifting the heavy stuff,
Holding us with His mighty arms,
Transporting us,
At our side,
At the helm – leading and guiding,
Behind us, executing His plan,
Pushing us forward to complete His work in us,
A new year is here,
A second chance – again and again,
Only He knows what lies ahead,
Only He can determine our future,
He has already ordained it,
So here we go,
Let us walk hand in hand with Jesus,
Always looking forward,
Never back,
Except to learn from our mistakes,
One day at a time,
With confidence and never losing hope,
We can soar like eagles,
To heights unknown.
