There’s fresh snow falling, still with that magical quiet only snow and Christmas can bring. And opposing the stillness, another year has gone in a blink.
Our stomachs lurch and hands get a little tingly thinking of how quickly it whizzed by. It was a year full of all the things you want in a good story (but maybe not necessarily in your life at the moment): struggle, growth, heartache, and... saying triumph is kind of a stretch but how about we say peace? Gratefully and definitely peace. This year has been one big lesson on learning to allow God to write our story into what He wants it to be — begging Him to mind the gaps and help us find the way.
