Happy New Year!

In the back of my triple combination I wrote something I heard once somewhere. Forgive me for not being able to attribute it properly. I think it is appropriate for the beginning of a new year.

Abandon all hope of a better past. Repent, move forward and have hope of a glorious future.

And these two scriptures are appropriate for a New Year:

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life. (2 Nephi 31:20)

Therefore, dearly beloved brethren [and sisters], let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed. (Doctrine and Covenants 123:17)

We live in exciting times seeing the prophesies of the last days fulfilled almost daily. Hold fast to the Iron Rod, press forward with steadfast faith, and may God bless and guide us every step of the way.
