New Year 2012, A Christian Message

Though born in dark hours, New Year shall be bright, As Jesus Christ is Truth and Way and Light; Don’t worry for today’s worries are much; Just pray to God to give the soothing touch! The Almighty has plans to bless New Year; Just live your life soul-wise and loving dear; If thoughts be cleaner, sins be lesser, Man, Then change your life for better, God’s grace can! God gave some strife in Old Year for our good; His Word’s enough for earthly livelihood; The God of love will bless you immensely, If you fix heart’s gaze to eternity! God is the Master of the universe; He is sole Lord; not wealth or money-purse; To God, all things are possible with ease; His only Son brought joy to man and peace! Take up your cross in life and follow Christ; You will be sin-free, not satan-enticed; Aim for treasures in heaven that’s priceless; Your earthly bliss shall grow to be boundless! So, live a life in New Year as God wants; Say thanks and praise the Lord by hymns and chants; God cares for all giving both sun and rain; Spend time in prayer more – a boon, not bane! Let good men lead lives better than they must; God undoes rods and frees those hearts accursed; Have trust in Him who loved you when He made; Your earthly good deeds will bear fruits, not fade! ‘Happy New Year,2012! ’ Fondly dedicated to my family, relatives and friends Copyright by Dr John Celes 01-01-12
