Here's to health and happiness!
A toast to the New Year!
Peace and joy to all of us!
Prosperity and cheer!
Years come and go, some bad, some good.
New years provide the space,
Each to fill with what one would,
Windows onto grace.
Years come and go, yet still we toast
Each one, for each one seems
As though it were a new-found coast,
Rich with hope and dreams.

It will take a little while to advance from East Coast to West.

Hope those Easterners experience Happiness before we Westerners get 2023.

I don’t think they will spoil it.

Don’t know if I can last????

DR. DEMENTO RINGS IN THE NEW YEAR

Dr. Barret Hanson, Ph.D., will turn 82 in April. He has gone from live radio to syndicated radio to the Internet. Back in my Los Angeles days I would spot him on occasion at classical music concerts, dressed in his trademark tuxedo and top hat. Hansen started his career in live radio in 1970 when he played this Jimmy Drake hit from 1956.

Choose Joy
Read: Philippians 1:12–21

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Philippians 4:4

Keith was feeling down as he trudged through the produce aisle. His hands trembled from the first signs of Parkinson’s disease. How long before his quality of life began to slide? What would this mean for his wife and children? Keith’s gloom was shattered by laughter. Over by the potatoes, a man pushed a giggling boy in a wheelchair. The man leaned over and whispered to his son, who couldn’t stop grinning. He was noticeably worse off than Keith, yet he and his dad were finding joy where they could.

Writing from prison or under house arrest as he awaited the outcome of his trial, the apostle Paul seemingly had no right to be joyful (Philippians 1:12–13). The emperor was Nero, a wicked man who had a growing reputation for violence and cruelty, so Paul had reason to be concerned. He also knew there were preachers who were taking advantage of his absence to gain glory for themselves. They thought they could “stir up trouble” for the apostle while he was imprisoned (v. 17).

Yet Paul chose to rejoice (vv. 18–21), and he told the Philippians to follow his example: “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!” (4:4). Our situation might seem bleak, yet Jesus is with us now, and He’s guaranteed our glorious future. Christ, who walked out of His tomb, will return to raise His followers to live with Him. As we begin this new year, may we rejoice!Mike Wittmer

What personal suffering or injustice causes you to languish in your sorrow? How might the truth of Jesus bring you joy?

Father, please raise my eyes above my circumstances. I look to You alone for joy.

For further study, read Why? Seeing God in Our Pain.

This is actually Freddy Martin’s band recording under a pseudonym. During my Los Angeles years, Barry’s Carpets had a store on that corner.
