Thank you, dear God, for giving me another year of life

Thank you, dear God, for giving me another year of life.

Thank you for all the experience of this past year. You've brought me so much joy and tears but nothing compares to the love that you’ve given me.
Thank you
for times of success which will always be happy memories,
for times of failure which reminded me of my own weakness and of my need for you,
for times of joy when the sun was shining,
for times of sadness which drove me to you.
Thank you for all the people you've given me to touch the very core of my heart.
Thank you for my friends who will remember me today by sending cards, and letters, gifts and good wishes.

Forgive me
for the hours I wasted,
for the chances I failed to take,
for the opportunities I missed this past year.
Help me in the days ahead to make this the best year yet,
and through it to bring good credit to myself,
happiness and pride to my loved ones,
and joy to you.
Thank you for loving me Oluwakemi Ann-Melody
Thank you Lord for Vivacity
Amen.
