Thought: As we look back on the past year it becomes but a memory full of the high's and low's of life. Coming up is 365 fresh new days unspent. What will 2019 hold for us?

Perhaps it could be the return of our Lord and Savior Jesus to take his children out of this world in the rapture. There's an urgency in the air to get right with God before the tumultuous events of the tribulation come upon this planet called Earth. It will be a time of fear and much anxiety with judgments falling one upon the other that which has never been and never will be again.

You don't want to be one of those left behind when the sound of the trumpet is heard and believers are evacuated in the rapture. Now is the time for Salvation. This New Year begin it with a personal walk with Jesus who promises to never leave us alone. His presence within will give you the strength to face whatever circumstances the New Year will hold. Ask Jesus to come in to your life today and don't put it off till tomorrow, "you never know what a day will bring." These are the words my husband of 58 years uttered on December 12th the evening he went home to be with the Lord. Tell your loved ones how much you love them every day, don't take them for granted as you never know what a day will bring. God Bless

Prayer: Father God, when we walk through life with Jesus we have his promise that he will never leave us nor forsake us no matter what the circumstances. Amen
Verse: Heb. 13:5 "Stay away from the love of money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said "I will never, never fail you nor forsake you" that is why we can say without doubt or fear , " The Lord is my Helper and I am not afraid of anything mere man can do to me."
