Wow! Another year has come and gone. For the next several weeks, I'm sure each of you will find it difficult to break old habits. How many checks will have an artistic 2009 made out of a 2008? If you're like me, probably at least a dozen or so before that new habit takes hold. Even with the anticipation of a new year, I often fight off a melancholy mood because all the excitement of the Christmas season has been packed neatly away in attic boxes. I've waved farewell to faraway family members, and the holiday vacation is over all too soon. It's now back to school and 'business as usual.' As Christians we have SO MUCH to look forward to. Sometimes we just have to FOCUS on the important things to RENEW our minds, bodies, and our spirit. It is my prayer that my January holiday picks will lift your spirits and rekindle your joy. And if you don't find something below that suits your fancy, you can always celebrate Fruitcake Toss Day on January 3rd (I've never liked those things). I've always loved renovating, refurbishing, and revamping. It's my prayer that this new year will bring new blessings to you and yours as you strive toward a new and improved you.
Serving Him Together,
Cathy Yaun,
Kentucky Girls Ministries Coordinator
