Welcome to DECEMBER! 46 weeks till Season 25 and 25 days till Christmas! 

A Prayer for Joy and Hope

Dear Lord,

As I enter this new month, I ask for Your joy and hope to fill my heart. Your Word tells me that the joy of the Lord is my strength (Nehemiah 8:10), and I desire to experience that joy each day.

Help me to find joy in Your presence and to delight in Your goodness. May Your joy be evident in my life and be a source of encouragement to others. I also ask for Your hope to anchor my soul, knowing that You have good plans for my future (Jeremiah 29:11).

Lord, in times of uncertainty or difficulty, remind me of the hope I have in You. May Your joy and hope sustain me and give me strength to face each day with confidence and faith.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
