New Year, last year, I was being battered by my emotions. (I can't exactly say what it is for privacy reasons.) And also at the start of the year before that.
Not to mention that I naturally am more emotional at the start of a new year; reflections about what happened or, what I did in the past year. Achievements? And then there's laying out goals and plans for the new year. Trying to dream again. Wishing and praying that things and relationships will be better. More in touch with the inner me. Are you like that when the new year comes?
If you're a personal friend of mine, you might not see me sulking. I'm not a hypocrite either. But I'm able to face the world like there's no struggle inside. With prayers. News come and the emotions come and go. Here comes the new year again...and the previous situation's not getting to a better light. And then, what's harder in life than to lose some loved ones?
But this new year, I realized that there's nothing I can do about it. But decide. Decide to not think about what I THINK, what I FEEL. Because in chaos or confusion, God is sovereign. Decide to be weak. Coz when I'm weak, God gives me grace to do His will. Decide to just think about JESUS. Because my delight is in Him.
This song gives me more faith that things will be better in His time.
