I will confess that over the years the last week of the year and the first week of the new year tend to keep me restless and stressed. It doesn’t take long for the worry and stress over things I can’t control to start backing up.

Maybe some are eager to tear the last page off of 2023 while we hope and pray for better times in 2024. And maybe in these last couple of days of the year, we should have an honest and bold conversation with the Lord.
