Thank you, Loving God, for the blessings that have been showered upon us in our lives. Help us to realize them and be thankful. This world often asks us to look at what is wrong first and to miss the many great things that are around us. May we see all the many gifts we have been given and cherish most especially the friends and family that you have placed in our paths. While there are many challenges we face, help us to look upon our blessings during those times so that we can endure those times. Help us to know that we can mourn, struggle and be challenged some and that we have more blessings than challenges. May we feel your presence this and everyday. Amen
