The year still feels new to me! I saw this at Jewel‘s and thought it was a wonderful reminder for the year ahead.
Another year I enter,
Its history unknown;
Oh, how my feet would tremble
To tread its paths alone!
But I have heard God’s whisper –
I know I shall be blest –
“My presence shall go with you,
And I will give you rest.”
What will the New Year bring me?
I may not, must not know.
Will it be love and rapture,
Or loneliness and woe?
Hush! Hush! I hear His whisper –
I surely shall be blest –
“My presence shall go with you,
And I will give you rest.”

That assurance that God is with me — and wherever I am going he’s there ahead of me — has given me the courage to do many daunting things in my life.
Thanks for the mention, Barbara and I love the photo you put with the poem. Just beautiful! 🙂
