Happy New Year!

"See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you." - Isaiah 42:9

"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." Isaiah 43:18-19
