A HAPPY NEW YEAR '2012' PRAYER (FOR APACHE CLASSMATES) GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!!!


Lord,
We come thanking you so much for all that you have done for us, our families, and our friends. Lord, your hand on our lives is so much more than we could ever ask for, and your blessings to us are so greatly appreciated. We know, Lord, that you have seen our challenges, seen our weaknesses, and rejoiced in our successes.

Lord, as you know, we are now coming up on a New Year. Lord, you know that we have made resolutions to change the areas of our lives that need it, and Lord we ask for your strength to help us to make those changes. Lord, we ask for your continued blessings and guidance in the New Year to make us more like you, to walk better in your path, this year.

We ask, Lord, for your continued blessings on those Classmates around us. Lord, we ask that whatever our Classmates or Alumni's needs are that this New Year for them will be one of peace and one of joy; not only for them but for theirs and for their families and friends lives as well. Lord, we ask that you would continue to be a presence in all of our lives. Lord, we ask that you give each of us a heart for you and a desire to serve and to give service wherever we can to make this world a better place. Lord, we also ask for peace and blessings on those who are far from home, for those who suffer and who are suffering, and for those who need you right now and for those who need you a little more each day. Lord, we pray for encouragement and for continued health and strength and financial blessings for all that may be reading this prayer.

We Thank you, Lord, for all that you do and that you have done in our lives and most of all we thank you for all of faithfullness to us and your continued blessings and love. Lord, let us be mindful to always give you the victory, the honor, and the glory in this and in all things. This prayer we ask in the Precious Name of Jesus.

Amen


Love and Blessings, Phoebe Macon
