Why lie I have never been so glad to enter a New Year and kiss the last goodbye. I always pray for my family and friends and myselfu of course before I leave home every morning according to Psalms 91 but I have never understood how much God does to protect us from all manner of evils. I used to look at people on the road wearing masks and I am like wah God has been doing a very big job of protecting our health, its just that we don't know.
I learned to enjoy being at home for the first time in a long time I was inside my home for 3.5 months out of 12. I had time to read, cook, pray and introspect about so many things. As they say when your life is threatened your priorities line up very first. You are stripped of everything but the essentials.
This year I lost my uncle who battled blood cancer bravely for 8 years. He decided to be cremated. I bet he's the first Meru ever to be cremated. A lawyer in my building very polite short fella who always waited for all the ladies to leave the lift before him, an elderly gentleman and a pastor friend who was my spiritual father in 2013 succumbed to Covid.
I must say, I have never understood the paramountness of God more than this year. When you have no distractions and are just couped up in the house, things become very clear, very fast. God is everything my people. God is everything. Remember the parable of the big stones and the small pebbles fitting in a jar. For everything to fit, you have to put in the big ones first for everything to fit, if you put the small ones it's impossible for the small ones to fit. God is the biggest stone and if you give Him first everything else will fit perfectly but if you let the nitty gritties of life, the important and big things will be displaced.
I wish you all a happy new year 2021. Please don't forget to thank God for the miracle of a new year. The miracle of family and people who love you and would do anything for you.
Leave grudges behind. Forgive everyone who has wronged just like God is wiping your sins of 2020 away. Don't be like that servant in the Bible who was forgiven a big loan by his master but couldn't forgive some one who had a small debt of his. He was ungrateful.
If the year has been tough for you. Have hope. Never give up for hope springs eternal. The Lord loves you and cares about what concerns you, do not let the harshness of life make you forget how kind and merciful God really is.
May the Lord send His angels to prepare a way for you.
May the Lord bless you and keep you may the Lord be gracious to you and make His face to shine upon you. That you shall be blessed when you are in the city or the country. May the Lord bless the work of your hands.
