I absolutely love this time of year!!! All the preparations before Christmas, decorating our home, buying gifts, planning for the "perfect" Christmas Eve (that's when we do most of the celebrating, we just eat and rest on the 25th...) and the kids anxioulsy waiting for what's behind the all that wrapping paper??? It's almost sad when it's all over...
But then when you look up and ahead we have an entire new year ahead of us!!! 2010 hasn't yet begun and we don't know what those 365 days will hold, exciting exciting!!! What we do know is that the Holy Spirit has adventures that He wants to take us to, miracles that are waiting for us in this new year and that He has promised to be with us even the days that are tough and when unexpected things happen. We have such an awesome God! He is with us every step of the way, He promised never to leave, He is the God of joy, love, peace and miracles. He is faithful, He's our deliverer and Savior! He is Jesus, the Risen One, the Mighty One, the Beautiful One! Wow, how great to enter a new year with Him!!!
Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
About The Almqvists
Hi, my name is Peter Almqvist and I am a minister of help. I work with setting up large outdoor evangelistic festivals all around the world, primarily in Africa. Currently we are on what we are calling the African Capital City Tour, or ACCT for short. We preach the gospel to those that have not heard or have yet to respond. The cry of the lost has been heard and we are responding to their SOS.
