The Bible is God’s chart for you to steer by,
to keep you from the bottom of the sea, and
to show you where the harbor is, and how to
reach it without running on rocks and bars.

I suppose when we wake on January 1 the world will look the same. But there is a reminder of the Resurrection at the start of each new year, each new decade. That’s why I also like sunrises, Mondays, and new seasons. God seems to be saying, “With me you can always start afresh”. Ada Lum
