Unity of Delray Beach

A Wonderful New Year

By the Reverend Nancy Norman

 

 

 

 

Wonderful, wonderful, fortunate you, this is the year that your dreams come true.”

Russell A. Kemp

 

“If you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams and endeavor to live the life you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours.”

Henry David Thoreau

 

Happy, happy, happy 2012!  This is a new year of possibilities, adventure, and wonder.  We begin to let our minds think about what we would like to experience in the New Year and the things we do not want to repeat.

 

Yearly we clean the slate, making room for those new 525,600 minutes that will be given to us on January 1, 2012.  We can use those fresh new minutes in creative, wonderful ways.  Using our power of imagination, we can write down, visualize our hopes, dreams, and desires, and make them a reality in our lives.  Again and again, we realize that if we believe in our dreams, hopes and desires, there is no limit to what we can accomplish.

 

 A new beginning gives us the opportunity to be free of past limitations and explore new exciting avenues of expression.  Write down your goals, be clear what you want to experience.  Perhaps it is a better job, more money, fuller family life; or maybe your desire is to meet someone and establish a life and family.  Do not be afraid to write it down and begin visualizing yourself living the life that will bring you happiness.

 

Do not settle for less, mediocrity does not bring happiness or a sense of fulfillment.  God has a plan for you, a Divine plan, believe it, trust your inner knowing, and see the result filled with the good you desire to experience. 

 

 This is a year of possibilities, adventure, and wonder.  God has a plan and it is greater than I can imagine.

 

 Russell A. Kemp wrote the following in 1947.  It contains a wonderful message as we step forth

 

This Is the Year!

Wonderful, wonderful fortunate you,

This is the year that your ships come in;

This is the year you find Christ within.

This is the year you are glad to live;

This is the year you have much to give.

This is the year when you know the Truth;

This is the year when you find new youth.

This is the year that brings happiness;

This is the year you will live to bless.

Wonderful, wonderful, fortunate you,

This is the year that your dreams come true!

Russell A Kemp
