Dear Lord, I couldnt move into another year without apologizing for the things I shouldve said earlier and didnt, and acknowledge the times I couldve done better but didnt Thanks for moving me while I grumbled about the changes you made. And thanks for the things you steered me past that couldve tripped up my destiny. Thanks for the mountains you sent to give me a place to exercise my faith. Im sorry I was so worried about who left me that I failed to thank you for who you let stay and I didnt even thank you that I am still here. You exposed me beyond my limitations, forced me to grow beyond my stagnation, and moved me from procrastination to a firm dedication to what is ahead! In spite of the blistering cold around me, I am warmed by your presence, kept by your grace, empowered by your faith in me, and strengthened by your patience. I want to thank you that I have known love, tasted laughter and have not had to live life without a touch. As the year closes, leaves change, temperatures plummet, birds migrate south and the freeze matriculates north, I too am now prepared. I have packed what I needed, discarded what restricted me, recycled what I could, and at last in the true spirit of Thanksgiving, I thank you God, I too, am finally ready to move on.
