I just saw Robin Ince share this beautiful Calvin & Hobbes cartoon on Twitter. What a lovely image at the beginning of a new year.

New Year is a bit like a new exercise book at school – you almost don’t want to write on the front page for fear of spoiling it.

I’m not going to do resolutions – I find January the worst possible time for trying to be hard on yourself. I will, however, resolve to do two things – one is to be expectant that God will be with me in everything and the other to remember that every single day is a fresh new adventure, a clean start, with our God:

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22, 23 ESV)

Happy New Year!
