With each new year, one can't help but think about the years that have past, and the one facing us. We reflect on our mistakes and the lessons we learned, hoping that we go into this next one wiser and more humble. At least that is how I feel. I can already look ahead and see certain changes that will come in 2012.
Today my husband started a new job, where after 23 years, he will no longer practice medicine. Years of carrying a pager, being on call, missing the children grow up, not having normal hours..... are a thing of the past. It is a bittersweet change for him, but we believe this is where The Lord has led him. Today's painting is one I gave him as a gift for Christmas to hang in his new office. It's name describes his new journey.
Is it scary? Yes. Do I feel uncertain at times? Yes. But isn't most of life that way? Always taking leaps of faith, trusting that we are making the right decision, yet stumbling along the way. The truth is, there is no path or road block too big that our Savior can't handle. My part is just to be faithful, and trust that God will see me through. Not one step He will make me take beyond what my foot is able to endure. My past is a testimony to that!!
Happy New Year!!
