31 Days of Prayer for the New Year Pt. 2

Happy New Year’s Eve!  Does it feel as though this year has flown by? Do you look back at this year and wonder the impact that you made on those around you?

While it’s easy to look at our flaws and want a quick fix on the areas we’re lacking, did you know there’s one thing you can do daily that will change EVERY aspect of your life?

It’s prayer.

That’s why we’re forming a community and rallying around each other for 31 Days of Prayer for the New Year.  We are spurring each other on not to be better or do more, but to refocus our hearts on the One who truly transforms us from the inside out, Jesus.

Hopefully you joined us for part 1 of this series and have already printed off your free prayer guide for the first 10 days of January, but in case not, hop on over here and print it out. Plus, the 3rd Prayer Guide has been published and you can find it here.
