Let them praise the LORD for his great love
and for the wonderful things he has done for them.
Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving
and sing joyfully about his glorious acts.
—Psalm 107:21-22 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
May all of my days be filled with thanksgiving and joy, as I praise You, LORD, for Your great love and the wonderful things You have done for me!
Life is confusing, at times,
and it would be easy for me to fall into fear over those uncertainties—those great
unknowns—that lie before me.
So help me to focus on that of which I am certain—Your great love for me.
Life is painful, at times,
and it would be easy for me to fall into complaining about everything that isn’t
as I would have it to be.
So help me to focus on those wonderful things that You have done for me—out of Your great love for me.
Life is an ongoing
opportunity for me to make a difference in lives of other people—through the example of how I live
my life.
So help me always to offer sacrifices of thanksgiving and sing joyfully about Your glorious acts—so they might know of my great love for You and come to know Your great love for them.
May all of my days be filled with thanksgiving and joy, as I praise You, LORD, for Your great love and the wonderful things You have done for me!
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
