A new year. More of the same, or significantly different?
There is much in life over which I have no control. If I
have taken one truth out of 2020, that is the one pressed down into my
thinking. A person makes plans, Scripture says, but God directs their paths. So
my plans, this year, focus on one day at a time. They revolve around discerning
the differences I can make, and making them. I will eat significantly less meat
from now on, continue to source products with the least environmental impact,
and join with locals who have similar aims. I will double down on efforts to
lobby for justice and freedom issues. I will celebrate each day, enjoying the
blessing of being with whoever I’m with each day, while continuing to pray for
the day when I can resume freedom of movement to visit all those I love and
miss.
May the God of hope fill us all with joy as we continue to
put our trust in him. Happy 2021.
