Prayers at the start of a new year

By Randa

2010

I don’t do New Year’s resolutions, but I am looking towards this new year as a time for improvement over the last. I pray that in 2010 I will be:

A better disciple – I’ve gotten so lazy. Inexcusably lazy. God has blessed me so much and I spend so little time focusing on His Word and prayer, using the demands of two children as a lame excuse.

A better wife – less argumentative, more respectful and helpful.

A better parent – more self-control, more simple enjoyment of my children, more patient and wise.

A better steward – of our finances, my body, our home

Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. Hebrews 12:1
