Prayer for Hope After a Difficult Year
Dear God,
hank you for helping us to make it through this difficult year.
Thank you that you’ve carried us through the uncertainty of deep waters, through the flames of trials, and through the pain of hard losses.
We are constantly aware of how much we need you, your grace, your strength, your power working through even the toughest days.
Fill us with your joy and the peace of your Spirit. Direct our hearts and minds towards you.
Thank you for your reminder that both in seasons of celebration and in seasons of brokenness, you’re still with us.
For you never leave us.
Thank you for your daily powerful Presence in our lives, that we can be assured your heart is towards us, your eyes are over us, and your ears are open to our prayers.
Thank you for surrounding us with favor and a shield, and we are safe in your care.
We choose to press in close to you today and keep you first in our hearts and lives.
Without You, we would surely fail, but with you, there is great hope.
Thank you for your healing power, thank you for bringing us into this new season up ahead.
We look forward to all that You still have in store.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
