As we enter 5771 take note of our lives and give us the strength and courage to change that which need changed. Forgive us our sins and errors and help us to turn to You in repentance and love. During these Days of Awe and Wonder help me to look at my deeds and words and actions with clarity and honesty Sustain me during difficult days and lift me up when life is hard.
Bring Your bountiful joy and gladness to me and my loved ones. Grant to us that shalom that is Your gift-peace of heart and mind and world.
