Prayer for January 2

O Lord, Almighty God and Heavenly Father, you did not give us life and set us in this world merely so we would nourish ourselves with grief and work until we return to the dust from whence we came. Instead, you ordained our lives so that we should fear you and love you, and cleave to you with all our hearts.  Even as your divine grace gave us the day to work, so you gave us the night to rest.  Under your fatherly shield of protection, we have mercifully enjoyed this rest, and for that we humbly praise and bless you with deep gratitude.  Amen.

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the Heaven.  Ecclesiastes 3:1
