celebrating

I am busy making a dip for a New Years party but I wanted to post an end-of-the-year prayer. Here's the dip and the prayer.

Bacon Cheese Spread

1 package  (12 ounces) bacon strips, chopped
1/2 cup chopped pecans or almonds, toasted
4 cups (16 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 cups mayonna1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped sweet red pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Cook bacon until crisp; drain. Mix with the next six ingredients. Serve with crackers. Yield: 4 cups

Dear Jesus,
As I enter a new year, walk before me and guide me in Your ways. I do not know what lies ahead, but You do. You plan my ways and direct my paths. Keep my eyes focused on You so that I have a sure guide in all the days ahead. Pick me up when I fall, forgive me when I fail, and love me when I am most unlovable. During the coming year, help me bless others as You have blessed me. In Your name I pray. Amen.
