Thank you..

Firstly THANK YOU LORD for all the interesting events that have left many with life changing experiences – including me. Thank you for giving me another year of life. Thank you for all the people who remembered me today, by sending good wishes even thou some were really remarkable although in my mind were undeserving but truly appreciated.

Having an opportunity to reflect on all the experiences of this past year on a day of praise has made me look at how the power of a super hero (Peter Parker as an example including Superman) doesn’t stand a chance….

God, for times of success which will always be through you I say thank you for happy memories, for times of failure which reminded me of my own weakness and of my need for you, for times of joy when the sun was shining, for times of sadness which drove me to you, have shown me that you are the only one to turn to..

Sometime I love asking for forgiveness and thank you for granting it - forgiving me
for the hours I wasted, for the chances I failed to take, for the opportunities I missed this past year.

Help me in the days ahead to make this the best year yet, and through it to bring happiness and pride to loved and special ones including joy.

I thank God for the gift of new life, new hope, and great opportunities and above all everlasting life which awaits many.

 Amen.
