We pray you will purposefully look for all things to be thankful for. List them . . . and then tell the people you are thankful for why you are thankful for them! Let your life be filled with the power of thanksgiving.
A Prayer for Thanksgiving
Grant me a heart of gratefulness oh God
so that I can live from the depth of my being.
May I take notice of disregarded moments of goodness.
Reveal to me the neglected gifts of grace
and show me your Presence within them.
Give me the desire to grow in thankfulness
that I may know true freedom–
the freedom of living without the need for more or better.
In gratitude I go deep
In noticing I experience your touch
In growing I am free.
On this day, I give thanks.
All our love and thanks for you this Thanksgiving,
Scott & Clare
