It starts with a blank piece of paper.
With open hands and an unmarked canvas, waiting in the quiet. No expectations. Just.
A Cream coloured piece of paper.
Slowly but surly the words come through the silence of the page. Like gifts....
My Scripture for 2009:
Old Testament:
Isaiah 43.
Fear not for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
New Testament:
John 15:4-5 4
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
My Word for 2009: COURAGE.
My Quotation for 2009:

My Saint for 2009: Saints Joan of Arc and Saint Bernadette

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Suzy. I love this list. I have a notebook which I am going to write in so that I stay committed to my new years resolutions. I will steal this idea and put it in the front for me to read regularly.
