My prayer for you in 2014 is that you will:

* Accept the shortcomings in others and realize it is not your responsibility to correct them, it is God’s to perfect them
* Understand your own shortcomings and allow God to perfect them, in His own time
* Reach out to help those whom you can help

* Understand that God loves you
* Understand that God wants you to love others
May you have bountiful blessings in 2014
