Lord,
As we celebrate your birth and look ahead to a new year, we place our trust in You. Guide us in the days to come, help us to live with faith, hope, and purpose. Let the joy of Christmas inspire us to be a light in the world, spreading kindness and love in all we do. Teach us to embrace the new year as an opportunity to grow closer to You and reflect Your grace in our lives.
Amen.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11
