December 2023

This year, once again, we are looking toward a new year with high expectations and much caution. After all, there are still wars and rumors of wars and inflation and the certainty of a hard fought (read “nasty”) presidential campaign on tap for the coming year. But even with all of the things we have to worry about, or to be cautious about, or to prepare for, I have to hold tight to my faith and the knowledge that - as they say - I may not know what tomorrow holds, but I know who holds tomorrow. When I hear folks talk about how truly rough things might get for all of us during the next few years, I think about one of my favorite scriptures.
