Thursday, October 6th

DAY 2

MORNING PRAYER

Thanksgiving weekend is fast approaching. Thanksgiving is a time of being grateful for the blessings that we have. It is a time to say thank you to God for his many blessings.  At this time of the year, we also remember those who don’t have enough food.   

Loving God,

We gather in thanksgiving

for the abundant blessings you bestow upon us.

The many blessings you give us

help us to see the immense love you have

for each of your children.

Help us to stop and give thanks each day

for what we have.

Help us to be generous when we share our blessings.

We ask this through Jesus,

Amen
