Good Morning, God
We have been hearing so much in the headlines about the "lame ducks" these days, Lord! We're not speaking of our feathered friends either, although we may be speaking of "tar and feathering" or about the "goose that laid the golden egg", depending on our political party, as Congress is preparing to be re-configured in January!
But, perhaps, we may consider this Wednesday morning the middle day of a "lame duck week". This is the week between Christmas and New Year's celebrations. It seems to be a quieter week - some of our fellow workers are out on vacation; our plants may be shut down; our churches are much quieter after the Advent time and Christmas Eve services. Perhaps, we're planning our New Year's Eve parties, but we're saving our energy for them by taking it easier this week. So, this week is sort of like a "lame duck week".
Heavenly Father, as we prepare to "Ring in the New", may we ring out and dispose of the old - the old that doesn't need recycling, rehashing, resurrecting - so that we don't begin the new year with ourselves being lame!
In Jesus name, Amen.
