Symbols of the Season: Clock

DECEMBER 30, 2023

So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12

 Recommended Reading: Matthew 25:1-13

Perhaps the most iconic New Year’s Eve celebration in America takes place every December 31, at midnight in Times Square in New York City. Known as the “ball drop,” the ceremony began on December 31, 1907. Starting at 11:59 p.m., a huge, lighted ball descends from above the street, reaching the ground exactly at midnight. The ceremony attracts one million revelers who gather to welcome the new year.

The passage of time—especially the end of one year and the beginning of another—reminds us that God’s timing in our life is perfect. Even when we welcome the end of a particularly trying year, we know God’s mercies are new every morning and that every new day, and year, is full of blessing and potential (Lamentations 3:22-24). We are also reminded to “watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming” (Matthew 25:13). We do not know the hour of His appearing, but the Father does (Mark 13:32).

As you welcome the new year, keep one eye turned toward heaven. The new year may see the return of Christ the King.

The great weight of eternity hangs upon the small wire of time.
Thomas Brooks
