Dear God,
Thank You for this new time that is coming closer and closer to us with each tick of the clock on the wall. We all know and know well that twelve strokes of the clock don't change the world, but You have given us reason to celebrate all the same.
Thank You for the excitement and the joy of this occasion.
Thank You for the goodness of your people.
Thank You for the optimism, the pessimism, the realism, any ism that fuels the hearts of the humanity that you've given us.
Thank You for leading us no matter what.
Thank You for hope.
Thank You for love.
I want to ask that you'll be with us - all of us - over the course of the year that lies ahead. Be with every decision, every new heart, every new soul. Be with every mind and everybody. Lord, You know better than I what this world needs, how it hurts, what it sees, and where it is going. Be our God.
And be my God.
Give me the strength to follow You, to trust You, and to know You. Where You go, I want to go. Where You stay, I want to stay. Let your people be my people.
Bless this year and let it be something great.
In the Name of Heaven and Earth, in the Name of Christ,
Amen
