We begin a new year full of promise and potential. We are certain to experience hardships and challenges, joys and heartaches—at least to some degree. Many of these things will be out of our control. But what will be in our control is how we choose to live each day. We should choose to let go and surrender ourselves to God’s will. We are reminded in Sacred Scripture “not to worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will take care of itself.” Let this year be a year for less anxiety, a year of surrender, a year of “letting go” of fear and trepidation. When you feel overwhelmed, recall the words of Saint Teresa of Kolkata: “Yesterday is gone; tomorrow has not yet come; we have only today. Let us begin.”
