PRAYER FOR THE NEW YEAR

 
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014
 
God of day and night,
of frost and sunshine,
of rest and growth,
we praise you for the rhythms and patterns of life:
for the gentle dying of each season
and the coming of the next;
for the wonder of new life, in all its forms,
and the quiet flowing of youth into age.
Give us eyes and hearts to perceive you
in the unfolding of our years,
and help us in this new-born year
to make more space for you,
the Giver of it all.
 
quote from A.A. appears in THE BOOK OF A THOUSAND PRAYERS, compiled by Angela Ashwin.
