ANYONE beginning a run down the drag strip of life in the coming New Year, should consider their personal spin. This should be done before mashing the accelerator down, pegging the tachometer and slipping the clutch. As our personal clocks click into 2021, all people.., but especially we who are baptized by the Holy Spirit as Christian... need to clearly consider the road ahead.

attention to the counting of our days or years… for these are but human inventions to mark for us the time in which we strive. God is eternal; and we are not! We get cranked up at birth, run at various speeds during our lives, and then our bodies quit when the spark dies. Our God, however, is eternal. Our God must be thought of as our salvation for now, tomorrow and the New Year. Scripture testifies to this forever loving Truth. We need only pick up the Holy Bible and find the right specs as the future unfolds. As to predictions for the coming year, we shudder at hearing the bad news of “2020”. Indeed it has |

With turbulence showing in Presidential election, illness epidemics, wars and rumors of wars… and snowy darkness shading the ending of this calendar year, we who love old cars note the ending manufacture of many insignias. Are we to follow the Avanti, Olds or Pontiac? |
