A Scripture and a Prayer: “Praise of Thanksgiving”

“I will praise the name of God with a song; I will magnify him with thanksgiving.” (Psalm 69:30)

Prayer:

Lord, there is so much to be thankful for, even though there is so much wrong and evil in this world. Help us to no longer focus on the world, but instead, turn our thoughts and heart towards You and Your blessings of salvation and the forgiveness of sin You have provided. Help each of us to count all the blessings You have provided, both small and great, but especially the blessing of salvation through the death of Your Son, Jesus Christ. AMEN
