My Prayer for 2017

My prayer for 2017:

Thank God that we’ve made it to 2017. Thank God for giving us another year, another chance to live for Him. Thank God that he’s been the same God since creation and that He will never change. He is the God of His word and will continue to be forever. I pray that anything wrong we’ve done in the past year, we leave in that year. Forgive us, and help us to see the error of our wrongs. Any pain we experienced is turned into joy this year. I pray our mourning turns into dancing and our songs of sorrow become songs of praise. I pray that we come into this year with a new perspective. Believing that with God, we can do all things and will do all things. I pray we’re unafraid to dream big, impossible dreams because we serve a God who does the impossible. That, without doubt, we expect great things this year because we work under an amazing God. I pray we accept every single challenge that he gives to us, wholeheartedly because He has an end result so great for us that we cannot even begin to imagine. This year, he will use us in unexpected ways because he that how he operates. I pray that the joy that we began this year with never ceases and we remember the feeling so we may never lose sight of it. That we realize we should not worry because the same God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is the same God that lives in us, today. That he will never leave us nor forsake us, especially in times of trouble. I pray we internalize the love that he has for us, so we may pour that same love onto others. That we realize we are made in His image and when we were created he approved of us, and his approval is the only one that matters. May God grant us the desires of our hearts. May he continue to order our steps. And may we become closer to him, than ever before, and live lives that are pleasing unto him.
