ABOVE ALL, my Lord, thank you for giving me this gift of .;life. thank you for your love and guidance especially the past year. I am nothing without YOU. Make me an instrument of YOUR peace. Help me inspire others as you inspired me to be a better person and a better christian. Forgive me my shorcomings as i forgive those who sinned against me. Mold me to be who you want me to be. Use me to reach out to lost souls so then they can understand the power of your love and mercy. So when I return you my borrowed life, you can finally tell me, my Lord, " Well done, my God and faithful servant..." Bless my loved ones Lord. Guide them the same way you protect me everyday and forgive their mishaps, too. I asked you these in your most precious name. AMEN.
