Resolutions, Longings, hoping and aspirations

every year i have formed a habit of naming the year with a theme and this year is not exception.
2008 was a year realisation, 2009 was the year of actualisation and now gw 2010 is the year of fulfillment.

in this year dear lord, i ask for so many things - some i asked for last year and still applies to this year

Strenghten my heart dear Lord, Strenghten me in my faith, for in thy path i choose to walk, glorifying thee always.
Protect me from blaspheming against thee, Protect me from blaspheming people, shield my mind from blasphemous thoughts, Keep it praising thee always
Forgive me Lord from sinning against thee, Keep me away from sinning people, Protect my mind from sinning thoughts against thee, Keep it in devotion to thee always
make me one who prays to thee o lord, my obligation to thee let me keep, grant me steadfastmess in thy service lord, let me forever be devoted to thee
Make me one who gives her charity lord, this obligation I want to keep, help me remember to give to others lord, For your blessings on me are great.
Help me lord to see the truth, holding to thee alone, guide me straight, help me to worship thee O lord, in life and in death devoted to thee
Provide me with understanding Lord, learning your scripture, understanding the meaning, help with wisdom and knowledge lord, teach me Lord and help me to learn
Provide me with patience to withstand lord, lifes struggles, lonliness and whatever may come, Provide me with patience to hold on, seeking to thee when things get too tough
in the face of all adversity dear lord, let me never forget thee, but let me turn to thee and feel you near, in the face of progress and jubilations let me not forget thee, let me not turn arrogant let me praise thee still
My ego - keep in check O lord, let it not lead me to sin against thee, make me humble, gentle and softly spoken, let me not rise to the devils bait.
my life is simple and my wants are simple dear lord, but lifes fleeting journeys seek to complicate things, Let me stay true to thee O lord, forever in your debt i will surely be.

Most Gracious -MErcy and forgiveness are some of your attributes and mercy and forgiveness i implore from thee, let me never for a second forget to praise thee, whereever i am whatever i do, Let this heart of mine be devoted to thee, let it never feel proud or arrogant to worship thee.
Protect my mind O lord and protect my head, from thoughts and words and images that i pick up - let my only concern be of worshiping and praising thee.

i am still the simple girl with simple wants, with simple needs and simple thoughts - i am forever grateful for all the blessings and kindness and support and joys and tears of last year i will forever be grateful for the lessons learnt - i hope by your will not to make the same mistakes this year, i hope to worship and praise thee still.

all the good things in life that you provide, my Lord provide for me, keep me praising thee always..
