flying in the night

I was outside tonight and I heard some geese flying overhead. It seemed odd because it was dark.
Sometimes we all have to fly in the dark. To make changes in our lives that feel like we are moving --flying in the dark. How do we have the guts to do that? How are we so brave?
We are brave when we look to those who have gone before. When we recognize how God has led so many people before us through trials and troubles--through deserts and valleys-- wherever we are and whereever we go. God's plan goes ahead of us and we follow.
What could ever hold us back from being all that God created us to be? not fear it is a four letter word... but hope and love... are four-letter words too. The kind we should all apply.
God abide with you this new year... God's plan lead you...God's love be with you. IS...

God abide
