The future is bright

 “The future is as bright as the promises of God”  My mom has quoted this from William Carey for as long as I can remember. I have always loved how this statement is positive and hope-filled and anchoring.  It takes an extra strength it seems to fully embrace a new year. It is a fight to look forward this year with  a sense of expectancy. I am sure I am not alone.  I am tempted to despair over how sad I feel about it. The Spirit, though, speaks a better word over my conflicted, trembling heart. My heart deceives me and I need His truth to light the path.  These past few years have been difficult for so many. They have been difficult for me. They have made expectant excitement feel like foolishness and naive. The security in all aspects of life be it health, finances or even the surety of having loved ones to grow old with isn’t there. I feel more fearful than expectant; more conscious of the fragility of everything. I fear looking at my phone or getting a text and it causes me anxiety
