PORTION 2: Gratitude

“If the only prayer you say in your entire life is ‘Thank You,’:
wrote Meister Eckhart, “that would suffice.”

As you think about the past 24 hours, what causes you to be thankful? Look back over the past day, the big and small aspects of life, and recognize what reasons you have to be grateful. Focus on these experiences and encounters, helping your mind and spirit center on the goodness and generosity of God.

If you’re using a journal, consider capturing your thanks in writing, expressing words of gratitude and giving testimony to God’s generosity and faithfulness. Find encouragement and reminders of God’s goodness, and be thankful.

Looking back over the past 24 hours, for what are you most grateful?
What makes you feel thankful?

Using simple words, express your gratitude to God.

“Praise be to the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens.”
[Ephesians 1v3]
