My favorite has always been:

I Am The New Year  Author Unknown
	Life, I am the new year. I am an unspoiled page in your book of time. I am your next chance at the art of living. I am your opportunity to practice what you have learned about life during the last twelve months. All that you sought and didn't find is hidden in me, waiting for you to search it out with more determination. All the good that you tried for and didn't achieve is mine to grant when you have fewer conflicting desires. All that you dreamed but didn't dare to do, all that you hoped but did not will, all the faith that you claimed but did not have - these slumber lightly, waiting to be awakened by the touch of a strong purpose. I am your opportunity to renew your allegiance to Him who said, 'behold, I make all things new.' I am the new year.

Prayer, Current Events, and Memories of the United States of America: Prayer Notebook

Here is another page for our USAGC 2026 Prayer Notebooks:

How else can we pray for the Great Commission to be fulfilled in the U.S. in the next 25 years?

What does that look like? 

USA Current Events Prayers:

Every day, take a look at your favorite source for National News. Do not look at your local news channels for this information. Look it up online or listen to the news for half an hour. As you do, list 3 items of current events in the United States to pray about for the next week. Pray for all of the people involved and all of the people that those people's lives touch. Pray the USAGC 2026 prayer over them--along with God to get their attention and convict them to be serious about faith. Pray for them to believe John 3:16 and to be in the Word and in prayer all day every day. 

This is something to take very seriously. This is one way USAGC 2026 can be fulfilled.

Imagine the rich resource of prayers you will have at the end of the year as this becomes part of your Prayer Journaling. 

What difference can one prayer make? It impacts generations. What impact will these prayers make? 

Do the national prayers at a minimum every day--5 days a week. If time allows, do the following:

State Current Events Prayers:

If time allows, do the above, but pray for 3 current events headlines from your state every day.

County/City Current Events Prayers:

If time allows, do the above, but pray for 3 current events headlines from your county and city every day.

World Current Events Prayers:

If time allows, do the above, but pray for 3 current events headlines from world news every day.

Answered Prayer and New Year Remembrance Exercises

New Year Remembrance Exercise #6:
What prayers did God answer in 2011? List them.

New Year Remembrance Exercise #7:  

What prayers were not answered this year and you need to continue praying? These are your Prayers of Determination--or as Mark Batterson calls them, your Circle Prayers. They are your A-S-K Prayers from Matthew 7:7. The USAGC 2026 is one of those.

New Year Remembrance Exercise #8:
What did God say to you in 2011? List what you can recall and what is listed in your prayer journal.

New Year Remembrance Exercise #9: 

What did you say to God in 2011?  List what you can recall and what is listed in your prayer journal.

New Year Remembrance Exercises Part 3 and 365 Memories Goal

Journaling the Year 2011:

365 Memories Goal

I hope you are starting to see a pattern here. We are trying to prayerfully journal everything we can think of regarding the year 2011. We are trying to get it put down on the page so we never forget these special memories.

Remember at this point, they do not have to be in any specific order. Just get them written down.

Once you have 365 memories, then you can stop this exercise...unless you do not want to, of course. Are we trying to remember one memory per day? Kind of. There are days when nothing happens. There are also days when too much happens. Therefore, 365 is the best number of memories to write down and remember. 

If you can only recall 100, then only put down 100. But, over the next several months, keep revisiting these exercises to see if you can remember more. 

New Year Remembrance Exercise #4:

Take out your calendar, planner, to do lists, journals, etc. Now, add to your lists. add any new memories you haven't written down yet. Warning...this will take some time. 

New Year Remembrance Exercise #5:
Take 5 minutes and write another list of your memories.

New Year Remembrance Exercises Part 2

New Year Remembrance Exercise #3:

Again, at this point, please do not look at your calendars, planner, to do lists, or journals. That will come later.

Take out a sheet of paper and draw a heart that takes up the entire page. Now, write all of the memories from the last year that are close to your heart.

List as many memories as you can fit int he heart and write as small as you possible can. Don't put them in a list. Write them all over your heart: upside down, diagonal, up and down, backwards. Be creative. Use different colors of pen if you desire. If you finish this heart and have more to list, then repeat this exercise.

Preparing for the New Year: New Year Remembrance Exercises

As Christians, God tells us over and over again to set up monuments and to remember what we has done throughout the Bible. Therefore, it is important for us to stop and do precisely that. Let's take some time over the next couple days to do so. We will also take a couple of days to plan for the following year.

I will lead us through several exercises and let's get as many memories from the past year written down that we can.

At this point, please do not look at your calendars, planner, to do lists, or journals. That will come later.

New Year Remembrance Exercise #1:
List as many memories as you can think of in a 5 minute segment from the last year. Do not worry about order. Just write them down. Write down the good, the bad, the ugly, the indifferent, and anything else that comes to mind. Write a sentence or two at least for each memory so you can remember what you mean in 10 years.

New Year Remembrance Exercise #2:
Repeat #1 in 15-30 minutes after you did exercise #1.

Do this all day long today. Try to do at least 8 segments where you write a minimum of 15 memories per segment. Just make sure to get them written.
