Heavenly Father,
We give You thanks for Your abundant blessings in our lives. We are grateful for Your love, grace, and mercy that guide us each day.
We thank You for the gift of salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. We praise You for Your faithfulness, Your provision, and Your protection. We humbly ask that You would continue to be with us, to strengthen us, and to use us for Your glory.
We are grateful for the gift of family, friends, and loved ones. They bring joy and love into our lives. We pray for their well-being and for the grace to be good stewards of the relationships that You have blessed us with.
We are thankful for the jobs, businesses, and opportunities that You have given us. We pray for wisdom and guidance as we work, and for Your provision in all our needs. We also pray for those who are struggling in their jobs, businesses, or looking for opportunities, that they may find Your provision and guidance.
We also ask that You would continue to bless our homes, our families, and our communities. We pray for Your protection, Your provision, and Your guidance in all that we do.
In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
who satisfies you with good
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
