Today is the beginning of the New Year, and the following prayer is an inspiring way to spiritually attune ourselves to the moment.   May we make the most of the infinite possibilities arising in every instant.

O Thou, who abidest in our hearts,
Most Merciful and Compassionate God,
Lord of Heaven and Earth,
We forgive others their trespasses and
ask Thy forgiveness for our shortcomings.
We begin this New Year with pure heart and
with clear conscience, with courage and hope.
Help us to fulfill the purpose of our lives under Thy Divine Guidance.
Amen.
