New Year's Prayer

"Father...even as we look into a new year, think about all that is ahead and have no idea what's coming, we know it's all in Your hands. We can't predict the future. We can't know what's going to happen. We don't want to know, but You know, and You've ordained it all. And come what may, may be never be so distracted by the world around us, may we never be so disquieted and discomforted by the things that are going on that distress and disturb us that we lose sight of the simplicity of the Christian life, which is to have one sole, driving ambition: to be pleasing You. That means to live in conformity with all that pleases You from the heart, knowing that one day, You will pour out eternal blessings on that level of faithfulness. So we commit ourselves to you with eagerness to see what will unfold in the days ahead."
