MY 10 RESOLUTIONS FOR 2021

This coming year, I have decided that with God's help, I shall:

Give up complaining . . . focus on gratitude.

Give up harsh judgments . . . think kind thoughts.

Give up worry . . . trust divine providence.

Give up discouragement . . . be full of hope.

Give up bitterness . . . turn to forgiveness.

Give up hatred . . . return good for evil.

Give up anger . . . practice patience.

Give up pettiness . . . put on maturity.

Give up gloom. . . enjoy the beauty that is around me.

Give up gossiping . . . control my tongue.

A NEW YEAR'S PRAYER

Dear Lord, please give me -

A few friends who understand me and yet remain my friends;

A work to do which has real value, without which the world would feel

the poorer;

A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed;

An understanding heart;

A sense of humor;

Time for quiet, silent meditation;

A feeling of the presence of God;

And the patience to wait for the coming of these things,

with the wisdom to know them when they come.

-- W.R. Hunt

My prayer for you in 2021 is that you will:

* Accept the shortcomings in others and realize it is not your responsibility to correct them, it is God's to perfect them

* Understand your own shortcomings and allow God to perfect them, in His own time

* Reach out to help those whom you can help

* Accept help from those who wish to help you

* Understand that God loves you

* Understand that God wants you to love others

* Continue to wear your mask - properly and always

* Get the COVID vaccine as soon as you can

May you have bountiful blessings in 2021
