Prayer for today (12/19/15)

Thank you, Lord, for being so faithful. Thank you for your compassion that is just the right amount to get me through the day. Father, thanks to you I get to start over, fresh and clean, because you have made me a new person. I now have a lifetime of new days to spend anyway I choose. Thank you for your never ending forgiveness. In Jesus' powerful name. Amen.
