Welcome the New Year
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.—Revelation 22:13 (NIV)
The Japanese have a word that means welcoming the first sunrise of the new year: hatsuhinode. This morning, reflect on the passage of time and the blessings that will unfold in the days to come. Lose yourself in the majesty of the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the grace of God shining right now.
Heavenly Father, You are the beginning and the end, the Light of my life. I trust You with my days and I praise You for Your glory.
