Morning Prayer of Gratitude<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Pray this: <\/strong><em>Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! (Psalm 95:2)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thankfulness is a great way to establish a relationship. When you thank God for something, you\u2019re giving credit where credit is due. Start your day by going around the breakfast table and having each person talk about something they\u2019re grateful for.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 768px\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146112 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Woman-outside-with-her-arms-raised-saying-a-short-prayer-for-gratitude-768x432.jpg\" alt=\"Woman outside with her arms raised saying a short prayer for gratitude\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"media-credit\"><\/span>\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>2. Short Prayer of Gratitude<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Pray this:<\/strong> <em>Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances\u2026. (1 Thessalonians 5:16\u201318)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I want to call the apostle Paul \u201cImpossible Paul.\u201d He gives us one short sentence with three commands that seem impossible. Until I try them. Rejoicing, praying, giving thanks. Could prayers for gratitude really work?<\/p>\n<p>I have found it helpful at times not only to \u201cgive thanks\u201d but to write down what I am grateful for. Make a list. Be specific. One time, when I feared I was sinking into a bottomless pit of depression, I took out a pen and paper and wrote. And wrote. By the time I looked up, I had almost filled the page. I was going to be okay.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 768px\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-146113 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Woman-saying-an-evening-prayer-of-gratitude-before-bed-768x432.jpg\" alt=\"Woman saying an evening prayer of gratitude before bed\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"media-credit\"><\/span>\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>3. Evening Prayer of Gratitude<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Pray this:<\/strong> <em>Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. (Philippians 4:6)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>How can we give up worrying? It never works to tell myself, \u201cDon\u2019t worry, Rick, don\u2019t worry.\u201d Instead, I need to move my mind and spirit into a more positive realm, as this verse reminds me. I let God know where and what my needs are, praying with the assurance that I am heard and my prayers for gratitude will be answered.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more inspiring stories, subscribe to <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopguideposts.org\/magazines\/guideposts-magazine.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Guideposts<\/strong><\/a> <em>magazine<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>READ MORE ABOUT FEELING GRATITUDE:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/how-to-be-more-grateful\/\">How to Be More Grateful<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/prayer\/bible-resources\/10-reasons-to-give-thanks-to-god\/\">10 Reasons to Give Thanks to God<\/a><\/strong><\/em><em><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/norman-vincent-peale-let-gratitude-shine-in-your-life\/\">A Short Gratitude Devotion: Let Gratitude Shine in Your Life<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can we be more grateful in our every day lives?
