a blessing for you

As the calendar prepares to tick over to a new year, here’s a blessing for you:

May God keep the joys and laughter of the past year with you in the year to come, and may God gently heal the sorrows and hurt of the past year.

May God’s peaceful presence fill all the dark corners of your life that travel with you, and may you know God’s smile on his face and yours.

May you walk and skip and run and dance ever closer with God in the new year, and may you be able to see his presence with you as you look back.

May God’s ambitions for you in the coming year be a source of hope and strength for you, and may you be aware of his purposes worked out in the past.

Happy new year to all of you.

Be blessed, be a blessing
