“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” -1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)
Giving thanks to the Lord first thing in the morning helps keep our hearts centered on what truly matters. Gratitude reminds us of all the blessings we already have and of the endless love God pours into our lives.
Here’s a simple morning prayer you can say to thank God for a new day:
Dear Lord, thank you for allowing me to awake to yet another beautiful day.
I am grateful for the beauty of the sun and Your other creations.
Despite sometimes forgetting to proclaim my thanks, I am overjoyed by the wonders around me.
Thank You for my life.
In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
