Lord, help me to not take for granted the
good things in my life. Help me to remember
there are those who would be grateful for such
simple things as a roof to shelter them from storms,
enough sustenance to satisfy the gnawing hunger
that is part of their daily existence, for clean water
to slake their thirst, for a safe place to sleep at
night, and for the ability to walk the streets of
their homeland without fear of gunfire or
mayhem. Help me to celebrate gratitude for
small daily miracles that often go unnoticed,
and to face each day with a grateful heart.
