“…but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”  Lord as I reflect on this past year today I thank you for bringing me through it all.  A lot has happened, but through it all I won’t complain. You have been the reason I was able to keep on going.  You renewed my strength when I was at my weakest moments this year.  You allowed me to rise above the many trials and troubles that I encountered.  I am feeling good about this coming year because I know that you are the source of my strength, you are the strength of my life.  Today I lift my hands in total praise to you.  In Jesus name. Amen.
