Ephesians 1:3–14—Even if we seem to be lacking in worldly wealth or wisdom, we are
assured that we, the elect of God, have a treasure far greater than anything on
earth. We have the salvation planned by in eternity by God and won in time by
Jesus Christ, who has redeemed us with His blood and forgiven us of our
trespasses. Furthermore, He has bestowed upon us His Holy Spirit as a guarantee
of our inheritance until the Last Day, when all His promises will be fulfilled.
Today is the final day of 2020. In His own perfect
timing, all will be made right at the end of days. Rejoice. Your Savior remains
timeless. The old year is gone. A new one dawns. The past year is over. Another
takes its place. Jesus remains the same, yesterday, today, and yes, forever.
Your times are in His hands. Fare Thee well child of God. Fare thee well. From
this year unto the next. Jesus remains the same, yesterday, today, and
forevermore.
Collect for the New Year: Eternal God, we commit to Your mercy and
forgiveness the year now ending and commend to Your blessing and love the times
yet to come. In the new year, abide among us with Your Holy Spirit that we may
always trust in the saving name of our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns
with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.[1]
