In the End, it all Begins…

On this final day of the year, we recall the beginnings. For, every end is a new beginning, until we reach the One who never ends. Spend some time today reviewing the year passing by. The hopes and dreams with which it began. The challenges and concerns you feared. Did they all come to pass? If things were better than you had dreamed, thank God for the same. If they were worse, well, you have made it through, and hence, still thank God. There is always a new beginning. We can always start afresh. Hold on to the finger of God and prepare for a new beginning. And remember:

In the beginning was the Word.  The Word was with God.
In the end is the Word-Made-Flesh. And, in Him, we are with God.
It’s just the beginning.
