The One who knows me best whispers his truths when I'm longing to hear. He knows my struggles and He calms my fears.
He knows my flaws but he never turns away. He shows me His goodness day after day.

The One who knows me best doesn't leave me alone with no where to turn. He gave me His words to read and learn.  His promises are real and  His wisdom prevails. He knows my every need and his love never fails.

The One who knows me best knows my whole story. He has provided me with His peace, grace and glory. He cares about me and all that I do. He wants to make sure that I know Him too.

Sadness held inside, hiding it so no one can see. Putting on a smile, but when I'm alone I let it flee.

Things get complicated and my world falls apart. Trying to hold things together, especially pieces of my heart.

I would rather spend my energy lifting others up rather than tearing them down.
I would rather make someone smile rather than seeing them frown.

I would rather stay quiet or use kind words rather than judge critically and start a debate. I would rather be known for peace and love rather than harshness and hate.

I would rather talk with close friends rather than people who don't know me. I would rather keep my opinions to myself rather than posting them for the whole world to see.

2019 is over & done. It held some hard times but also some fun.

We shared tears, laughs, ups and downs. Some days started with smiles and some ended with frowns.

But we made it through and overall our blessings were plenty. Now, here's wishing you hope, health, joy and love in 2020!
