Once again we find ourselves at the threshold of a new year. What better way to begin the season than to take a moment and contemplate with gratitude all that Almighty God has granted us. With these thoughts in mind, let us reflect on the truly marvelous gift bestowed to mankind by our Lord and give our gift of gratitude by welcoming Him in our hearts and living God-pleasing lives.

Let us reach out to others and give of ourselves to the less fortunate as He reaches out to us. And let us forgive one another as He forgave and forgives us.

God of all times and seasons; you fill our lives with joy, purpose, fulfillment, and celebration. As we enter into this year that we mark as 2011, may our steps be directed to accomplish your purpose, may our hearts be focused on your grace, may our lips and deeds proclaim your goodness, may our moments and times be filled with your joy.

If our shoulders sag from the heaviness of life and the seasons of despair, may we see in them the opportunity to grow closer to you and in your love, closer to one another. In your name we pray. Amen.”

Happy New Year and God Bless each and every one of you, my brothers & sisters in Christ!

I think Jesus is coming back this year honestly!! Jesus said we couldn't know the day or hour but we never said we wouldn't know the season!! Think about it people! 1948 (beginning of prophetic timeline when Israel became a nation) + 70 years (a generation) = 2018 (second coming of Christ) - 7 (years of tribulation) = 2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
