Goodbye 2010

What an awesome, rich year it has been! I’m so amazed, and grateful.

My prayer is that for each of the 365 days that lies ahead, we will do what is right, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8). Regardless of what horrors or ecstasies await in 2011, if we choose contentment in Christ, then it will be a good year.

My ‘themes for my thirties’ so far have been love, wisdom, gentleness, simplicity, consistency, zest, potential, forgiveness and contentment – so here’s to another year of striving to live by those.

I’m also excited about our positioning on the planet for this another bright, unmarked year – physically, spiritually. Because, for now, He has planted us here with the jacarandas, for His purposes.

You're the God of this City
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You are

You're the Light in this darkness
You're the Hope to the hopeless
You're the Peace to the restless
You are

There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done

in this City...

And greater things are still

to be done here.
- Chris Tomlin

May we taste and see the goodness of God.
