no.609 141231 Thank you for the year 2014

Happy New Year!

I have been away from my blog for such a long time. However, I thought I'd write few words down since today is the last day of 2014. This year went by so fast for me - I probably felt the same at the end of last year too, but this year, especially the last couple of months went by in a blink of an eye.

Compared to last year, I am indifferent about how this year is ending. I am thankful for the past year God has granted me. However, strangely there is no "I am so thankful that I'm tearing up as I write this post." I know that God has used me in so many ways this year, but perhaps what I experienced last year was so great that the things God revealed to me this year don't appear to be as grand and exciting. On top of that, I'm not even excited for the New Year. It's not that there's nothing to look forward to. It's more like I don't want to make the New Year's day an excuse to start something new.

Regardless, there's one thing I want to achieve this year (fingers crossed). I want to read my Bible from Genesis to Revelation. This is also my church's goal, so I hope to encourage and be encouraged by others to finish it together.
