Dear Lord,
whether I leave behind a year of joy or of sorrow and disappointments.
I pause to give thanks. Thank You for being with me everyday of every year. Thank you for making all things new and for giving me the grace of fresh starts & beautiful new beginnings.
Remind me of your presence in the days to come. Especially when I’m distressed, pained, confused or anxious.
I pray for the gift of the Holy Spirit and call upon Jesus, Your Son, our Lord, for His intercession, His guidance and light to shine our path, this new year and always.
Amen.
