Another Year

The New Year brings great hope, Resolutions, this day are spoke! With the anticipation to conquer all, We speak out vows, then stand real tall! For a month, or maybe two, We feel real good, yes brand new! But then reality shows her face, The days, the minutes we start to chase! Now, the promises that we made, Into the blue they start to fade! Heads are beginning to hang low, They won’t look up, for it’s a blow! Then excuses ramble on, Another year will soon be GONE! Once again, we miss the boat, Then struggle on, to stay afloat! When will we learn this vital lesson? That JESUS is our only weapon! He gives us strength to push on through, I know for me, this is true!! The best commitment we will ever make, Is to know our JESUS, his will to take! Then his strength will bring us through, Whatever it is, we need to do! So if you’re tired of the roller-coaster, With JESUS get a little bit closer! 2014 in full of blessings, There already spoken, no need for guessing! In Christ there’s power, freedom and strength, Favor, and honor in great length! Provision and love in abundance, And in faith it is substance! Now in the New Year, I bid you well, For in Christ you do EXCEL! Oh' His face shines upon thee, And his grace does set you FREE!! Stacey Brown 1-1-14
