A New Year in 2013?

Happy New Year.
What an interesting season we are in.
This month has been something of an "uncovering" month, when political falsehoods and civic manipulations are coming to light.
I think it's interesting that there was no "assault rifle" used in the Connecticut massacre, and the family of the perp are actually connected to high level finance and the government's investigation of an international political scheme.
I think it's interesting that Hillary got a concussion right before she was to testify, and then during the hearing her non-answers were accepted as if she answered the questions.
I think it's interesting that our President and every member of Congress refuse to participate in the health care "reforms" they are forcing onto citizens, and avoid the question when asked on camera.. repeatedly.
I think it's interesting that the sales of firearms and ammunition has peaked in our country, as citizens stockpile for some type of siege.
I think it's interesting that our President and Congress somehow think that the solution to being so far into debt that we may not make it back-- the solution is to get more debt?? I was attending a Dave Ramsey discussion group about responsible finances and my mind kept going back to our country's leadership and lack of fiscal responsibility. I see no changes in the works. I see word-crafting, positioning and an entrenched Oligarchy who no longer are part of the masses. Elitism has a new face but it still thinks it wise to advise: "Let them eat cake."
New Year?
In some ways, yes... totally.
Some family is going to give birth to their first baby.
Some amazing young person is going to graduate from school.
Blessed people like myself are going to enter into a marriage covenant before God.
And the greatest change this year? Some amazing person is going take that step of faith, surrendering their life to Abba's love in Christ Jesus. So with that I sit up straight and proclaim, "Happy New Year".
