2013 - What Should We Expect From It?

Well 2013 is here and blogs everywhere are blooming with advice.  Let this blog be no different!  

What can we expect from 2013?  I think we can expect more of the same.  It is not that I am cynical but if you examine history carefully you will see that very little changes over time.  That is because we are human beings and the human beings that came before us had the same concerns, same problems, and there were some that chose to solve problems by being less than ethical in their practice.  I think that things are actually getting worse as we get farther and farther away from honoring the Law of God.  We allow abortions on demand.  We shoot one another on the streets of our cities because we are wearing the wrong color shirt.  We have sick people that shoot innocent children and so on and so on.  

What can we (I) do about it.  I intend for the year 2013 to a year where I won't complain about the darkness around me.  I will do all in my power to bring light.  I will become a positive influence over the part of the Earth that God has placed into my care.  I will not curse the darkness, I will light a candle.  In short I will begin again. When I was young (a long time ago now) I had the world by the tail and was optimistic about the future.  I tried to improve things where I could. So today I will begin again.

May the year 2013 bring you peace and prosperity and may the end of this year find you closer to God and may the world be at peace.
