Day 29

Pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Do not quench the Spirit. 1 Thessalonians 5:17-19

My heavenly Father, I sit here in awe of all that I should thank You for. You are so much bigger... so much greater than I could ever understand.

Please give me reminders today to be grateful. Don't allow me to miss the small -- or big-- blessings around me. Fill my heart with gratitude.

For my friends who struggle to pray (talk with You), would You give them a desire to know You more. Teach them to pray, as You're teaching me to. For those that don't have a relationship with You, draw them back to You.

Thank You for Jesus. Thank You for loving us. Thank You for the gift of grace!

In Christ's name, Amen.
