I will pause from Psalms today to wish everyone a happy New Year.  We cannot know what the new year holds in store for us, but we can be certain Who holds the new year, and that is God.  Whatever last year brought, both good and bad, is now gone, so we need to let go of it as we move into a new year, hopefully with hope and not despair.  Some things seem to be about the same, like the pandemic, some seem worse, like the supply chain, but God is still in charge of the ultimate outcome.  As followers of Christ, we need to choose to rejoice in the Lord everyday, no matter what that day brings.  God has a purpose for us as Christians, so let's not get so caught up in the world and its problems that we forget that fact.  Happy New Year, and to God be the glory.
