Happy New Year's Eve -- Day 365 — We Made It

That’s 365 days of choosing hope. Of posting encouragement. Of offering a positive word in a world that often prefers venting over virtue. And let’s be honest -- this year gave us plenty to vent about. Politics. The economy. Relationships. Disappointments. Phew!

But once upon a time -- 2010, to be exact -- I sensed a nudge from God. I didn’t really want to step into social media’s noise, but I felt called to bring a little sunshine into places that can feel awfully dark. So I showed up. One day at a time.

Fifteen years later, I’m still here. And I’m still grateful.

Staying “in the zone” has meant paying attention -- catching God’s fingerprints in everyday moments. A sunrise. A scripture. A conversation. A whisper -- and sometimes a holy shout. I learned that God is always speaking. I just had to tune my heart to listen.

And here’s the wonder of it all -- when I showed up for my daily appointment with God, He always showed up too. Faithful. Present. True to every promise.

Do I know what 2026 will hold? Not exactly.
But I know Who holds it.
And that makes all the difference.

There’s something within us that loves the idea of a new year -- a fresh page, a clean slate, a chance to make wrongs right and good things even better. Hope feels lighter when it’s new. Courage rises when we remember this simple truth -- "I’m still here -- so I’m not done."

God’s mercies will meet us again tomorrow morning. They always do.

So here’s to new horizons, new adventures, and new grace. Goodbye 2025 -- your 365th day is close to its end!

Let's get ready to turn the page to 2026 -- our journeys will continue -- and our Author and Finisher is already ahead of us!
