A friend posted this as her prayer for 2012, perhaps some of you can benefit from it too…

“Father, I come to You by faith, laying every fear and worry at Your feet. I am not sure what this year holds for me but I do know You are with me every step of the way. When I am tempted to worry, please remind me to trust You. When fear attacks, I want to choose to pray instead of panic, knowing that You are my Lord and my Shepherd. I praise You for Your faithfulness in my life, even when I don’t understand life’s circumstances and can’t see the next step. I praise You, Lord.”
