I am excited to see what God has in store for us in the days ahead.
He has
been reminding me of Jeremiah 29:11... that His plans for us are
good...
that His desire is to give us hope and a future... a future full of promise and
blessing as we trust in Him and follow Him into this new year ahead!
I want you to have this "New Year Blessing Art" as a FREE
downloadable coloring page... my new year's blessing to you. I've formatted
it in two sizes... 4"x5"... which is the size of the original and might be a fun
addition to your art journal or scrapbook or even as a greeting card front! I
don't think it's too late to send a New Year's Blessing to your friends or family!
You can also download it as an 8"x10" and use it as a springboard with your
kids to talk about not only the blessings God has in store for us, but also
the blessing-givers He's called us to be to others in the coming year!
And speaking of BLESSING... that is the ONE WORD the Lord has given
me for 2013. I want it to be the foundation for all I do and all I am to be in
the days ahead... both in becoming more aware of and acknowledging the
blessings God pours out on me... and also becoming more aware of how every
moment of my life... including the everyday chores and challenges.. are
potentially God-given opportunities for me to be a blessing to the Lord...
and a blessing to others! I have a feeling that this perspective could be
a real attitude changer and heart motivater!!
So that's my desire for 2013..to be more of a BLESSING giver and receiver!
How about you? What's your greatest desire for the new year?
