Praying Each Day - January 2015

[MajestyJo]

JANUARY

Because you are with me, Lord,
I can wait in patience and in hope
for the new life you bring.

Let us pray:

Lord Jesus,
at this time
we can look back to the old year,
and forward to the new.
We give thanks
for the blessings of the past year,
and we place into your hands
the mistakes we have made.
As you are “the Light of the world”,
take away the darkness in our lives.
As you are “the Way”,
lead us in the year ahead.
As you are “the gate of the sheepfold”,
protect us from danger.
We entrust the past to your mercy, Lord,
the present to your love,
and the future to your providence.
Amen.
