Just hours before we learned of Quincy's promotion I posted this prayer to our church's website... 

A New Years Prayer 
May God bless us with discomfort
At pat answers, partial truths, and
Anemic relationships
So we may live out of depth

May God bless us with challenges
To til the soil of our shallow commitment
So seeds of hope can take hold
And grow into great forests of faith

May He bless us with faith
Faith that keeps us foolish enough to believe
And brave enough to act
Faith is the thing hoped for and the assurance of what is going to happen.

Amen.
