from Boaz Ministries
There are no coincidences in this life. As we move through
each day and truly pay attention to the details of our circumstances, we begin
to discern lessons meant for us to learn – at times by the most unlikely
individuals. Sometimes we are the teacher, sometimes the student – but we are
ever gaining, gleaning, gathering and giving. Times of trouble also serve to
stretch us, teaching us about ourselves and others; growing us up into full
maturity where experience and knowledge beget wisdom.
No matter what kind of year 2012 has been, we are blessed to
be here at the threshold of a new year. Let us be thankful for everything,
great and small, that took place in our lives this year. If we reflect on the
various situations, conversations, confrontations and celebrations, there
should be a sense of gratitude for the experiences.
2013 is a clean slate, only God knows what lies ahead. As we ask Him to order our steps in His Word,
may our hearts and eyes be open to new opportunities to bless; and we need not
fret about the “destination”. For come what may or will - there is joy in the
journey!
May the Lord bless you and yours in the New Year!
Bruce and Bridget Edwards
