Prayers

Jesus, You are both Lord and friend.

Dear Angel at my side, my good and loyal friend, you have been with me since the moment I was born.

Heavenly Father, On whom I depend for all that is good, I give You thanks for every blessing, Including gifts beyond what I have understood.

May I be as a child, growing in understanding, and may my faith increase, too, Cherishing the hope in possibilities That are only possible through You.

Amen.

Blessed Virgin Mary, please join with me in prayer : For openness to the favors God holds out to me — the grace to look ahead with hope and live each moment faithfully; to trust in His love and wisdom with humility, for God knows when to go beyond the possibilities I see.

God, in everything that's happened this year, Both good and bad, We know that you were with us, Always loving and present.

Lord Jesus, May I always have abundant room for You in my heart.

Heavenly Father, I give You thanks That in every time and circumstance You place within eternity The potential of each moment— A lifetime opportunity.

I came to You late, O Beauty so ancient and new.

Loving Savior, At whose birth, a star brightly shone, You are our light, our Savior made known.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary.
