Joyous New Year Greetings to you all…
As I look back over this past year in my life and in blogging…God has shown up…in ways that were expected and in so many ways that were unexpected…some required the passage of time to be seen adequately and accurately that it was His hands that acted.
Last year, I wrote about the Comeback that God whispered to me…I believe I have taken steps in that direction and it will be a lifelong journey on that pursuit. This year, I believe God is calling me to remain…be steadfast…keep taking one step at a time…to rest…to sit at His feet more often…
I finished the year by reading Mark Buchanan’s excellent book The Holy Wild and it describes finding rest in the character of God. So today I leave you with a list of the words used in A Work of Heart this past year to describe our God…may we each experience all of these and more this year.

I’m so glad to have had the pleasure (and continuing pleasure as the Lord allows) of knowing you the last few months Helen! How good our God is!
I love that list of yours! I just drank in each and every one of those descriptions about our God. Jesus is our everything, isn’t He? I’m so glad.
Resting in Him,
Susan

Just stopping by to get to know the ladies who are reading the Bible “cover to cover” with me. I read your 100 things and I have a daughter named Courtney and a son named Caleb! Looking forward to getting to know you better.
