As we enter 2009….

I'm sure at some point over the last few weeks, as many religions celebrate a time for family and friends, we've all looked beyond the things we don't have, to these things that really matter. Indulge me:

I said a prayer for you today and know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart although He spoke no word.
I didn’t ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn’t mind.
I asked Him to send treasurers of a far more lasting kind.
I asked that He’d be near you at the start of each new day.
To grant you health and blessings and friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you in all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.

Happy New Year!
