Happy New Year

 In the words of today's first reading, Numbers 6: 22-27, we ask God to give you the following blessing:  "The Lord bless you and keep you!  The Lord let his face shine upon  you, and be gracious to you! The Lord look upon  you kindly and give you peace!

 May God keep you close to Him.  May God keep you from entering relationships that demean you, disrespect you, exploit you. May God keep you from falling into snares that Satan sets for you. May God keep you from going astray and not turning back to Him in repentance. May you see God's face shining upon you through your spouse, your children, your co-workers, your friends. May God's face shine upon others through your love, your compassion, your understanding, your generosity, your forgiveness!  And may God give you peace!
