And as you step into what\u2019s next, carry this truth with you: if God brought you through this year, He will guide you through the next one with the same faithfulness \u2014 and even greater purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know how I made it through some of the moments I faced this year \u2014 but I did, and that is evidence of Your hand on my life. Thank You for carrying me when my strength ran low. Thank You for guiding me when my direction felt unclear. Thank You for comforting me in the places where the pain felt too heavy to hold alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank You for providing in ways that didn\u2019t make sense on paper, for opening doors I didn\u2019t expect, and for protecting me from what I didn\u2019t even know to pray about. Thank You for turning moments I labeled as failures into lessons that shaped me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year wasn\u2019t perfect, but it was purposeful. It stretched me, taught me, softened me, strengthened me, and showed me Your faithfulness again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And God, as I pray this, I ask that whoever needs this reminder today feels Your love wrap around them the same way You have wrapped Your love around me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
