Prayer for the New Month
Dear God, as we begin this new month, we come before you with gratitude and humility. We thank you for the blessings of the past month and for the opportunities you have given us to grow in faith, hope, and love.
As we enter this new month, we ask for your guidance and wisdom. Help us to use our time wisely, to prioritize our spiritual growth, and to serve others with kindness and compassion.
May this month be a time of renewal and refreshment for us. May we be filled with your peace and joy, and may we be inspired to live out our faith in all that we do.
We pray for the intentions of our hearts, and for the needs of our families, friends, and community. May we be a source of hope and light to those around us, and may we always remember that you are with us, guiding us every step of the way.
We ask this through Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
