Pensive at the Onset of 2015

Every time a new year rolls around, all kinds of thoughts swirl around in my head.

Does that happen to you?

The optimist in me wants to believe that lots of good things are ahead.

                                            (Bye bye until next December, Santa!)

The pessimist says, "Watch out. This is going to be a year to rock you to your socks."

If I remember to turn everything over to God, I don't have to worry about what may or could happen in 2015.

A friend used to remind me of the following: 

He (meaning God)  is in charge.

He is in control.

He calls the shots. 

He is the boss.

 When I repeat the above to myself, the year ahead looks A-Ok, indeed, no matter what is ahead.

DO YOU WORRY ABOUT THE FUTURE?
