The struggles of the year gone by often leave us with hope for a better year.

The hope we have for a better year is a precursor to something much greater.

This innate hope for a better year is a shadow of our innate hope (desire) for the final end of disappointment, struggle and unrealized dreams.

No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind can even imagine what God has prepared for those who love him.

1 Corinthians 2:9
