Happy New Year!

 

A  Prayer for the Ending of an Old Year and

 the Beginning of a New Year...

 

Lord, give me I pray:
A remembering heart for the things that have happened...
An attentive heart to what I have learned
A forgiving heart for what has hurt
A grateful heart for what has blessed
A brave heart for what may be required
An open heart to all that may come
A trusting heart to go forth with You
A loving heart for You and all your creation
A longing heart for the reconciliation of all things.
A willing heart to say “Yes” to what You will.
