new year's eve on dec 31, 2033

Doesnt it seem we may have burned the last of our reserves to survive 2022?  We pushed hard, didnt we?

But in our recuperation, in the throes of our fatigue, we see the bright light of the promise of a New Year coming: one more chance to contest, and to be shown worthy, of our Father's riches in glory.

We are of course part of his physical evidence here on the broken earth.

And we see, with that first ray of dawn, January 1, 2023, the renewed light of God's promise to us with this contesting of life.
