New Year's Eve and New Year's Day have the total opposite effect on me as Christmas.
I love New Year's.
Sometimes I get all dressed up and go out. Some years, like this one, I go to a party (or two!) There have been years in the past where I went absolutely nowhere by choice, and stayed home. . .alone.
I love that.
You see, I've always used New Years as a devotion to prayer and meditation and journaling about the past, present and future. I will delve into renewal of the mind and heart, reflect on the past, and dream of the future.
I will get deep, then get deeper.
There have been years when I embraced the future with optimism and hope. Other years I felt the release of the past leave me, exhaustingly.
This year, well, God's working something out for me. What it is, I don't know. I just know it's something. So this New Year's Eve I'm devoting to faith.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
