Dear Father,

You have told us what is good.

You have told us what is required of us….

to do what is right,

to love mercy,

and to walk humbly with you.

It is our prayer, as we roll very quickly into the new year,

*that your spirit will live in us more boldly. 

*that your truth will be our daily compass.

*that we will love the things that you love

*and hate the things that you hate.

Please help us walk very humbly

and very closely

with you, our God, in 2013.
