New Year's Prayer

Dear God, Spirit, Divine Mother,

On this day I ask you to grant this request ~

~May I know who I am and what I am, every moment of every day.

~May I be a catalyst for light and love and bring inspiration to those whose eyes I meet.

~May I have the strength to stand tall in the face of conflict and the courage to speak my voice, even when I;m scared.

~May I have the humility to follow my heart and the passion to live my Soul's desires.

~May I seek to know the highest truth and dismiss the gravitational pull of my lower self.

~May I embrace and love the totality of myself my darkness as well as my light.

~And may I be brave enough to hear to my heart to let it soften so that I may gracefully choose faith over fear.

~Today is my day to surrender anything that stands between the sacredness of my humanity and my divinity.

~May I be drenched in my holiness, and engulfed by God.

~May all else melt away.

And so it is.
