Looking to the New Year

She wakes up with rosy cheeks and tousled hair, and a heart full of fresh expectation. Everything is exciting again. Everything is possible.

New mercies, oh, that’s not just a theory to her. It’s not just a nebulous concept. Mercy washes over her — over all of us! — every single morning, and she lives this, through and through.

Let’s be like her.

Let’s have childlike hearts.

And let’s walk into the morning of this New Year joyously, our hearts bursting with hope.

Four Year Anniversary, photo via Oaxacaborn

Four years ago, I walked down the aisle to this song, and back up the aisle to this song.

(Oh what a thing to do.)

And then we moved from California to Florida, and then back to California, and then back to Florida again.

(I swam across, I jumped across, for you.)

Josiah, oh, I truly love you more now than I did then.

(Look at the stars, look how they shine for you, and everything you do.)

I'm Gina Munsey, a Jesus-lover and a sojourner; a weaver of words, anchored in hope. I am Mexico-born, Eastern Europe-raised missionary kid who ended up being a Californian by way of Florida outside of Nashville, Tennessee -- but we landed here before The Great Migration. I live my days full of coffee and adventures while my 12-year-old learns Mandarin Chinese and Greek, my 3-year-old uses all the markers, and my artist-husband creates worlds from pixels and light. I'm an editor, a magazine contributor, and a writer who has only completed four chapters of my languishing manuscript. On any given day, you can find me in the middle of [home]school surrounded by stacks and stacks of books. Oh, and the name of this blog? Oaxaca -- wuh-HA-kuh -- is in Southern Mexico, where I was born! (See full bio).
