El Olam, our Everlasting Father, though You overshadow time, You see us entering a new year in time. Just as You limited your actions to the fullness of time, to creation, the honoring of feast days, we ask that You fill us with the expectation of what You have for us in this new year! Open our eyes to see You in every facet of our lives. As our eyes are lifted to and fixed on the Greatness of You, let the things of this world be in our peripheral vision. Open our hearts to see Your Kingdom and await the fullness of that vision to come to pass. Direct us to walk in Your Kingdom with our feet planted on this earth. Open our ears, Holy Father, to hear Your voice, both in Your Word and in our conversations with You! Heavenly Father, You have blessed us beyond our comprehension. We thank You for our families, for the Body of Christ, and for all our needs being met. We desire to bless Your Name and bring glory to You in this new year! Lead us into that field that You say is ready to harvest. We ask this in Your Name.
