Faithful Companion, in this new year I pray:
to
live deeply, with purpose,
to
live freely, with detachment,
to
live wisely, with humility,
to
live justly, with compassion,
to
live lovingly, with fidelity,
to
live mindfully, with awareness,
to
live gratefully, with generosity,
to
live fully, with enthusiasm.
Help
me to hold this vision
and
to daily renew it in my heart,
becoming
ever more one with you,
my
truest Self.
( Joyce Rupp)
When
we depend on man, we get what man can do;
When
we depend on prayer, we get what God can do.
GOD MAKE YOUR YEAR A HAPPY ONE
Not by shielding you from all sorrow and pain, but by strengthening you to bear it if it comes. Not by making your path easy, but by making you sturdy enough to tread any path. Not by taking hardships from you, but by taking all cowardice and fear from your heart as you meet hardships. Not by granting you unbroken sunshine, but by keeping your face bright even in the shadows. Not by making your life always pleasant, but by showing you where man and his cause need you most and by making you zealous to be there and to help. Not by keeping you from battle, but by bringing you off every field more than conqueror through Christ “who loves you.”
