At the onset of a new year, I realized a significant anniversary had passed during 2020 that I should've celebrated. I don't remember the specific day, but just over 50 years ago, I asked Jesus to forgive me of my sins. I was nine.
My cooperation with God's leading throughout the years has been a dance of two steps forward and one step back, but I've never regretted my decision to follow the Lord even once. To me, grace means that even on my worst days, He feels the same about me.
My one and only new year's resolution is to follow Him more fervently, and cling more tightly to His word than ever before.
May all those who endeavor to do the same, succeed. Happy New Year!
Penelope, what a wonderful anniversary! Congratulations!
