Today is a day for renewal and rejuvenation. It is the day all things spring anew. Today heralds the beginning of a new season while bringing the past one to an end.

While we harvest the fruits of the year gone by, we need now to plan for the year ahead.On this day there is need for both celebration and deliberation. As we rejoice the present, let us reprise the past and realign the future. May we seek Him, see Him and serve Him in all that we do.

The dawning of a new year heralds a new beginning. It is in essence a chance to revisit our goals, to review the year gone past and renew our commitments for the suture.

Clearly, we have been gifted with this life for a purpose. I wish you a year of change and growth. May your life inspire others. May you be the light you were intended to be from the moment you were born. May 2009 be the turning point of your life. May the Lord bless your every step.

Happy New Year!
