Hebrews 12:2 - 2. Looking into Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the shame and is set down at the right hand of the throne of GOD.
My family and I are about to celebrate New Year's Day, I'm still not about resolutions into the future, because you never know what the future will hold. I'm into saying, "If GOD spare all of our lives through into the next year", because we all don't know if another day is promised. So...I take one day at a time, and pray for another day; an extra day of life to come. I think about what my family and I are going to do for the New Year. No plans are in the making, if GOD spare all of our lives, only living for today.
There is no resolution for today, or any other day in which GOD has given to us. I do believe my family and I will do a little feast...a family tradition that is still in effect today. I don't know why our tradition is made for making a pot of black eye peas and greens, or what it will bring to the New Year, or what it means, but it's our tradition. And it will continue until there is no one else to continue it's tradition.
This post was dated back in December. I never got chance to publish right away, because of my family's set backs, and moving into my niece Octavia's home has left us with complete homelessness. We didn't ask to be homeless, but...I thank GOD and his son JESUS for life, health and strength. Nothing more can be a blessing, but...to have my niece to give her immediate family a place to stay, and we're thankful for it.
