1. be better to my body
Dear God, This is the year I will be better to my body. I will be careful in my diet, walk more, exercise with regularity, and visit the doctor for check-ups. Thank You God, for the gift of my body, I will care for this amazing network of muscle, bone, fluids and organs that You lovingly made for me. ~Amen
2. read and learn more
Dear God, This is the year I will use my mind for good. I will read, watch, and listen with intent and purpose. No longer will I fill my mind with gossip, hyped-up news stories, or cheap fiction. I will seize every learning opportunity. Thank You God for the brain You ingeniously built just for me. ~Amen
3. be kinder
Dear God, This is the year I will be kinder to my family, friends, co-workers, and neighbors. I will do random acts of kindness for strangers. I will embrace all of Your creatures with consideration and compassion. I will be conscience of nature and do what I can to keep it in its cleanest and most productive state. I will honor everyone and everything of Your creation. ~Amen
4. be better with money
Dear God, This is the year I will be more responsible about money. I will work hard and work smarter. I will save more and spend less. Neither a lender nor a borrower I will be. I will let money flow through me and see it used to better myself and to make the world a better place. ~Amen
5. pray more
Dear God, This is the year I add more prayer to my life. I will praise You more. I will offer prayers not only for my own self-interest but for others. I will be more active in a spiritual community that shares my values. And God, each and every day this year, I will pray for peace. ~Amen
