New Territory

It begins with a flurry of well wishes

It continues amidst the ups and downs 

For some it ends as soon as it starts

For others it never began

It did not begin for many reasons

Dreams lay as a heap in their tangled hearts, 

No, not another year to hope again

Nay, I'll rather it doesn't start at all. 

For some it begins with trepidation

As they take cautious steps forward 

They dare to peek through the windows of faith to what lies ahead 

Perhaps they reason,

This year will unfold with floods of yesterdays dreams 

Many venture into it with

Courage, to live on

confidence to attempt feats untried and untested

commitment to see it through

determined to conquer fear

 as they endeavour to venture into territory unknown

Begin 2015 with faith, hope and trust in God, forgetting what is past, look ahead and give wings to your ambitions. 

You made it through that's reason enough to go into the year with zeal and audacious faith. 


Happy New Year.
