Year-End Thanksgiving Sunday Prayer

Eternal and Faithful God,

As we come before You on this final Sunday of the year,
our hearts overflow with gratitude.
You have carried us through seasons of joy and seasons of trial,
through moments of clarity and moments of uncertainty.

Thank You for Your unending mercy,
Your steadfast love,
and Your guiding hand that never left us.

Lord, we confess that not every day was easy,
and not every step was strong.
Yet You strengthened us when we were weak,
comforted us when we were discouraged,
and restored us when we were broken.

As we look back on this year,
we remember Your faithfulness in every circumstance.
For every answered prayer, we give thanks.
For every closed door that protected us, we give thanks.
For every lesson that shaped our character, we give thanks.

Now, Lord, as we prepare to enter a new year,
cleanse our hearts from fear,
renew our minds with Your truth,
and fill us with hope for what lies ahead.

Help us release the burdens of the past,
forgive what needs to be forgiven,
and entrust to You all that we cannot control.

Lead us into the coming year with courage,
with wisdom,
and with a deeper desire to walk closely with You.

Bless this worship,
bless every family gathered today,
and bless every heart that seeks You.

We offer this year, and the year to come,
into Your loving and sovereign hands.

In the name of Jesus Christ,
our Lord and Savior,
we pray.

Amen.
