Good morning, Family:

I pray your morning is starting off with glory and praise to our Lord. This is a brand new year. A fresh start in so many ways. I pray that the things we need to grow in, this year, will become easy for us to accomplish.

Not every road promises to be easy, but we do have the promise of not having to walk alone. We will not allow fear to keep us from our Greatness in Christ. We will not fear the unknown, when God calls us to step out on faith and trust. When we face a road that we cannot see, we will grab the hand of God and follow him. We won’t look down and be paralyzed by fear. We will walk by faith and not by sight, as the Word of God instructs us in 2 Corinthians 5:7.

Psalm 23

Living Bible (TLB)

23Because the Lord is my Shepherd, I have everything I need!

^2-3 He lets me rest in the meadow grass and leads me beside the quiet streams. He gives me new strength. He helps me do what honors him the most.

⁴ Even when walking through the dark valley of death I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me, guarding, guiding all the way.

⁵ You provide delicious food for me in the presence of my enemies. You have welcomed me as your guest; blessings overflow!

⁶ Your goodness and unfailing kindness shall be with me all of my life, and afterwards I will live with you forever in your home.

Go in peace, while praising and serving the Lord.
