new year, you say?

Dear God, 

 How did you know I needed the courage to step up to what you have been calling me for? Thank you for everything you have allowed me to learn.

Thank you for the moments you have made me experience which I wasn't even able to imagine possible. The hurts I had were nothing compared to the glory to be revealed in You. Every bit of uncertainty I had was stilled in Your promises, and every bit of expectation was met more than what it should be.

Thank you for the people you have allowed me to meet, to know deeper, to cherish and to love. This 2012, I was brought into a higher level of experiencing you, and I believe, this new year, it's even more. I am looking forward to how I'd be getting out of the circles of comfort I'm in and strive to look for You in places unknown to me.

God, thank you for you are committed into making me the kind of branch You want me to be. Whatever I'd be experiencing this year, I thank you because You said in Your word that everything works for a purpose for those who love you.

For every tear I had shed, every laughter I shared, every remark I expressed, all were of purpose. My heart is yearning for your glory, Father. Fill the pages of my life with Your presence.

Yours,
Jonah :) 

P.S.
I thank you for this blog of which you have led me to have this 2012. Thank you for those who have been here, reading and experiencing what I have been through with You. May they continue to join me in reliving the ways of how you have revealed Yourself.

And to you, dear reader, thank You for simply being here. :)

before I cross towards 2013, pose danay :)
