December slipped into January and the journey of 2009 is underway. Several of the alums (and almost alums) are recently engaged and making plans for weddings this year. How quickly this can change the plans that were made in 2008. Whatever plans you have made or are making, may each plan be made with this in mind - that God does have a plan for each of us - a plan that will not harm us; a plan that will help us.
My transition into the new year included reading several books that were recommended by friends. The first was THE SHACK. This is a thoughtful read about grieving and our relationship to God. The second was THE ALCHEMIST - an exploration of wisdom. Both are worth the time.
As we continue the journey I leave you with a thought from THE ALCHEMIST: When each day is the same as the next it is because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises. (page 27) ... may each of your days be recognized as a special opportunity filled with new blessings.
