A New Year Revolution

Happy New Year! Below is an image of a card that my grandparents received in/around 1937. This book from 1949 is a vault of timeless wisdom-treasure! Here is today's meditation/blessing/wish,as relevant today as it was then. (Don't you love how, as time passes stilllife's best and true things are timeless?!) Come, where a new year hoists a troveOf hopes that we maintainWhere the best we can do for loveIs love and love again Rather than lob slight’s stinging stoneWhere we all slip and errCome, let us help each other onThis God-ward thoroughfare For all that fuels fret-and-fussThis precious truth abidesGoodness and mercy follow usAll the days of our lives Then come, where the old is made newWhere endings turn to startsWhere pray, once more we resolve toGladden fellowmen’s hearts © Janet Martin Psalm 23:6Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
