Thank you, Lord for blessing us so richly in 2015.
I thank you for keeping our family safe, I praise you for our health, and for restoring our bodies when we’ve been sick. Thank you for our jobs and for providing all that we need, and more. Thank you for the awesome opportunities we’ve had to travel and see the beauty you’ve created around us. Thank you for our children and blessing us with them.
Thank you for our marriage and for giving us 10 wonderful years together. Thank you for all the fun times we’ve spent this past year with friends and family and for the blessings they are in our lives.
Lord, I pray for your protection over our family in 2016, and for continued health and happiness. We ask you to guide us in the year to come as we seek your will for our lives. We look forward to what your plan holds for us in the coming year. We know whatever comes our way, you will be there through it all. Help us to live our lives in a way that may please you in the year to come.
Amen
Happy New Year!!
