Gratitude changes us. When we pause to count our blessings, even the ordinary day becomes a gift. Take a breath and give thanks.
Father, thank You. Thank You for life, for breath, for another day. Thank You for the people who love me and the small mercies I so easily overlook. Open my eyes to Your goodness all around me. Let gratitude shape the way I speak, the way I give, and the way I love. May my life be an offering of thanks to You. Amen.
Try this today: name three things you are grateful for, and thank God for each one by name.
