To see the first day of the year is a blessing. It is not by exercise, because sports men died, not by riches, because the very rich also died. It is not by our security, because the well guarded also died. It is just the grace of God, to be on the register of the living today. The previous year may have been good, bad or ugly; a mixed feeling when we look back. There might have been deaths of loved ones we are still struggling to overcome. Days of pain, sorrow, hardships, poverty, sickness, disappointments, failures, hunger; may bring tears to our eyes. However, the days of laughter, smiles, blessings, goodness, satisfaction, love, joy, promotion, successes, favours and good relationships, cannot be ignored. Through it all, God is still God. The journey may have been a difficult one, but God pulled you through: if nothing at all, you have life today. The value of being alive is beyond any price tag. Be thankful this day, because we are not better than those who couldn’t see today. May we enter the new year with thanksgiving. Have a blessed new year. Into 2021 let’s eschew HATRED, BITTERNESS, BACKBITING, FALSEHOOD, GREED, CHEATING and all other forms of SOCIAL VICES. COURTESY: 𝗔𝗯𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗶 𝗔𝗯𝗱𝘂𝗹 𝗥𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻
