a new years prayer

Dear Lord, in this coming year please grant me to have:

• A few friends who understand me and remain my friends;
• Work to do which has value, without which the world would be the poorer;
• A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed;
• An understanding heart;
• A sense of humor;
• Times for quiet, silent meditation;
• A feeling of your presence in my life;
• The patience to wait for the coming of these things;
• And the wisdom to recognize when these things come.

Praying in faith in the name of Christ our Lord.

Amen
