Dear Father in Heaven,

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day.
I thank you for my being able to see
and to hear you this morning.

I'm blessed because You are a forgiving
God and an understanding God.

You have done so much for me
and You keep on blessing me.
Forgive me this day for everything
I have done, said or thought that
was not pleasing to you.
I ask now for your forgiveness.

Help me to start this day with a new
attitude and plenty of gratitude.

 Let me make the best of each and
every day to clear my mind so that
I can hear from you.
Please broaden my mind that I can
accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper
over things I have no control over.
Let me continue to see sin through
God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil.

And when I sin, let me repent,
and confess with my mouth
my wrongdoing, and receive
the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me,
let me remember Jesus' example -
to slip away and find a quiet place
to pray.

It's the best response when I'm
pushed beyond my limits.

I know that when I can't pray,
You will listen to my heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be
a blessing to others.

Keep me strong that I may
help the weak.

Keep me uplifted that I may have
words of encouragement for others.

 I pray for those that are lost and
can't find their way.

I pray for those that are misjudged
and misunderstood.

I pray for those who don't know
You intimately

I pray for those that will delete
this without sharing it with others.

I pray for those that don't believe,
but thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and
God changes things.

I pray for all my
sisters and brothers.

For each and every family member
in their households.

I pray for peace, love and joy
in their homes, that they are out
of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that
reads this knows there is no problem,
circumstance, or situation greater than God.

Every battle is in Your hands for
You to fight.

I pray that these words be
received into the hearts of every eye
that see them, and every mouth
that confesses them willingly.

This is my prayer to you,

In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Prayer of Saint Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let me sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith;

Where there is despair, hope;

Where there is darkness, light;

Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;

It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

May we find peace and joy in this new year.

Amen

Jesu Jesu][Eternal father strong to save][Blest be the tie that binds]
