THANKFUL THURSDAY

Father, giving you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another opportunity to openly praise your holy name. They are grateful for this blessed “Thanksgiving” morning. They know that there is no better gift to be thankful for than the gift of life. Therefore, they push through darkness and temptation to reside in light and peace.

Father, help all to make it through this blessed and thankful day by keeping you through your Son, Jesus Christ, first. Help all to also not complain because they never know how good something or someone is to them until it’s too late. Therefore, continue to be like Christ, love and cherish each other despite one’s disposition.

“I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.” Psalm 7:17
