Gracious God,

As we enter this New Year, we thank You for the year gone by and all Your blessings. Forgive our failings, and help us learn from them.

We ask for Your presence and guidance in the year ahead. Bless us with peace and protection. Grant us wisdom to make good decisions and courage to follow Your will.

Help us grow in faith and kindness. Open our hearts to serve others. Give us health and strength.

May this New Year bring abundant blessings, renewed purpose, and a deeper connection with You.

Amen.
