Gracious God,
Today I want to say thank you,
for all I am, all I have, and all I am able to do.
Sometimes I take it for granted for the most basic things;
A comfortable house, water from the tap,
food to eat, clean clothes to wear, the love of a family....
And so today, I think and pray for those who are
homeless, lonely, forgotten, discarded by society;
those who do not have access to clean water or have
to walk miles just to find it. Those dressed in rags,
those unable to afford the basic essentials, whose
pride has been taken away from them.
Lord, help me to remember how lucky I am, and to
reach out and offer more of myself, my time, money
and love to those in need.
Amen
