As we step into 2023, may this benediction, written by Larry Hein for Brennan Manning, be ours as well:

"May all your expectations be frustrated, may all your plans be thwarted, may all your desires be withered into nothingness, that you may experience the powerlessness and poverty of a child and sing and dance in the love of God who is Father, Son, and Spirit."

In other words, may God lead us into an upside-down kind of blessedness, in which we die to ourselves so as to live in Christ, find his strength in our weakness, and discover that true happiness is found only in the life our Creator designed for us to have.

Amen. Let it be so.
