Grateful: The Subversive Practice of Giving Thanks
Dearest Christ,
Thank you for the gifts of family and friends, food and water, sunlight and each new day. Open my eyes to better appreciate the simple blessings of life and become alert to daily opportunities to experience gratitude. Let me never be content with merely feeling grateful. Instead, grant me the joy of discovery and an eagerness to change, that I might live in thankfulness. Help me to become a truly grateful person.
Amen.
