Pastor Paul said, that it is fortunate that New Year's Day rarely falls on a Sunday. Many who stayed up last night to greet the New Year are in no condition to worship today. [Though I understand that a few could be heard this morning moaning, "Oh God....Oh God....Oh God..."] And then, of course there is football, the real religion of many in our land. New Year's Day is always a day of worship for the true football devotee. But here you and I are in the House of God. This, of course, is where we ought to begin a New Year, especially after celebrating Christmas and receiving A GIFT BEYOND DESCRIPTION!
