It’s here already, 2013, has it really been 365 days since I was watching fireworks with my friends and family and fearing about my future: My O Level results, my new school, my new friends, staying close to my current friends, my studies, my new house, my new ministry, my new CG…. Looking back now, I would have told my 2012 self not to worry or fear, because Jesus has been with me through every step of the way, and everything turned out beautifully in His time. There were still moments of tears and times where things went wrong, but even when that happened, I fell into the loving arms of my Daddy God. This year, I have many other things to worry about: A’s, SYF, friendships, serving, making decisions for the future…. But I envision my 2014 self telling me now not to fear, because Jesus has been to my future and said that it is good. So, despite everything that could weigh me down this New Year’s Day, I’m going to smile, because I’m completely depending on Jesus, and He never fails. He brought me through the past 17 years of my life, here’s to an amazing 18th one. 😊
