Dear Redeemer Jesus,

Thank You for all You have done for me this year. Thank You for the faithful ways You guide me and my family. Thank You for making it obviously clear that You are the only way, the truth, and the life. Thank You for the presence of Your sacred heart in Your holy sacrifice.Thank You for never departing us.

Forgive us our 2022 sins, indifference, lukewarmness, slander, idol worship, greed, ego, lack of trust in You, trust in mortal men, and hypocrisy.

Forgive us all the pain we cause Your heart daily. Thank You for redeeming us even though You knew in that moment we would lack appreciation, belief, and faith – instead choosing to live in fear rather than trusting in You.

Thank You for all the good you will do for us in 2023 and all the miracles You will perform.

Thank You for all the eyes You will open to Your obvious works.

Thank You for how You will work through us in 2023 so that You may be glorified.

Thank You for how you will make 2023 the best year ever! Amen.
