A fresh start in a new year! Here we are we have made it to 2016! I believe God has great things in store for this season!  I keep saying that we are just one year closer to Him returning for His bride!  Thank you Jesus!  

You may have dreaded 2015, if you are like me there were some hard times and hard moments to walk through this past year and struggles that I wasn't sure about.  Even moments where I feel my faith was tested in areas.  I have to say though that through it all the Lord has been teaching me so much!!  I am really being tested to see if I am gonna lean on Him and truly put my faith in who I know Jesus to be  or try to do this thing on my own.  I am choosing to TRUST!! I can't do this thing alone!! Romans 5:3-5 definitely has been real in my life. 

Romans 5:3-5
3 
We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.
4 And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.5 And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.




Like I said though, I believe the Lord will do greater things in this season.  I love 2 Corinthians 5:17, realizing that if we are in Christ that we are a new creation, the old life is gone!! Praise the Lord! If we belong to Jesus, we have been given a new life and a new name and I am thankful that the Lord's mercies are new and fresh each morning.  The Lord is gracious and merciful and Jesus on the cross paid a ransom that no one else could pay!!   

I loved the picture at the top saying, Old ways won't open new doors!  I believe we cannot keep doing the same old things and living in the past and in our old nature when Christ has given us a new nature! Jesus died to give us new life and so many times we try to hang on to the old and drag it around with us and it weighs us down! Jesus said to cast our cares upon Him for He cares for us! So all that baggage and junk that tries to weigh us down and hang on to us we need to lay it down at the cross and give it to Jesus!  That is what He died for!  

New Year, new season, new doors, get ready!!! Do NOT drag your past around that tries to hold you back from all that the Lord has for you! Remember who you are in Christ, You are a New Creation, the old life is gone!  

Isaiah 43:18-19
18“But forget all that--
    it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.
19 For I am about to do something new.
    See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
    I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

​
Revelations 21:5-6
5 
And the one sitting on the throne said, “Look, I am making everything new!” And then he said to me, “Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true.”
6 And he also said, “It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega—the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life.
We have a hope and a future in Jesus!! Don't forget what this whole thing is all about!  Jesus is coming back soon for a bride without spot or blemish!  Let's open new doors God has for us and keep looking up for His return!! We will soon be going home!
