While thinking about the new year to come, I may feel a little anxious about the changes it may bring. Yet I know that while change is inevitable, it also brings with it new possibilities, ways to grow, and blessings beyond any I could imagine. So I look forward to the new year with eagerness and anticipation, with hope for all that is possible in my life and in the world.

I am filled with hope as I bless the year that has passed and look forward to the future. I look forward to opportunities for me to be of help to family and friends and ways I can express God's love in my life. I look ahead to applying positive approaches to life's challenges and to gaining knowledge.

Uplifted, I move forward, knowing that each new day is filled with opportunities.
