I can't believe that another year has passed by. As we look forward to 2007, we need to be thankful for all the blessings that God bestowed upon us over the past year. We endured some rocky times in our lives with illness, loss of loved ones, and financial difficulties, but God has brought us through! We also need to remember to keep God in all of our plans for the future. If we leave Him out, our plans will surely lack the full blessings that God has assigned for us. I look forward to continuing the works that God has placed before us for the coming year! I pray that you each have a very happy and healthy New Year!!
