From Streams in the Desert, January 1
…Deuteronomy 11:12 describes the land that the children of Israel would be entering,

“…the eyes of the Lord are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.”
…there lies before us the new year and we go forth to possess it. Who can tell what we shall find? What new experiences, what changes shall come, what new needs shall arise? But here is the cheering, comforting gladdening message from our Heavenly Father, “The Lord thy God careth for it.” and “His eyes are upon it away to the ending of the year.”
All our supply is to come from the Lord. Here are springs that shall never run dry; here are fountains and streams that shall never be cut off. Here…is the gracious pledge of the Heaven Father. If He be the Source of our mercies they can never fail us.
…We cannot tell what loss and sorrow and trial are doing. Trust only. The Father comes near to take our hand and lead us on our way today. It shall be a good, a blessed new year!

 Turn it up. Sing. Dance.

Live like there is no tomorrow.

Dance like no one’s watching.

And then, having done all – we stand.
