Philippians 3:13-14
No, dear brothers and sisters, I am still not all I should be, but I am focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I strain to reach the end of the race and receive the prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us up to heaven.
New Year Prayer:
God grant us this year a wider view,So we see others' faults through the eyes of You.Teach us to judge not with hasty tongue,Neither the adult ... nor the young.Give us patience and grace to endure And a stronger faith so we feel secure.Instead of remembering, help us forgetThe irritations that caused us to fret.Freely forgiving for some offense And finding each day a rich recompense.In offering a friendly, helping hand And trying in all ways to understand;That all of us whoever we are ...Are trying to reach an unreachable star.For the great and small ... the good and bad,The young and old ... the sad and gladAre asking today; Is life worth living?The answer is only in, loving and giving.For only Love can make man kindAnd Kindness of Heart brings Peace of Mind.By giving love, we can start this yearTo lift the clouds of hate and fear. author- Helen Steiner Rice
