January 2017 Prayer of Hope .
Elder Janice Wallace
Father , in Jesus ’ name , our hope is in you .
We ask for the ability to rise above what we see and what we ' ve felt .
We look to you for direction in this year to not be as normal , but changed for the greater .
Our hope lies in you that we ' ll gain the knowledge and strength to stay focused , to believe in our purpose and love as you love , and to forgive without question and focus our triumphs .
Our hope oh God is that what we say will match what you ' ve said and that you ' re pleased with our conversations .
Help us Oh God to cherish each moment and be grateful for what we have with each other .
We thank you for the days ahead , we believe we receive and are always in agreement with your yes .
We love you Father God in your name we pray . Amen
