Story
Being Thankful
The “suppertime” call rang out and Nathan and Grandpa took their places at the table.
Grandma’s homemade bread and other goodies met Nathan’s bright eyes as he folded his hands and waited …..and waited. Though grandpa was hungry too, he was adjusting his knife and fork, and plate as he finished a little conversation with grandma.
The wait was too long for hungry Nathan, so he put his little hand on Grandpa’s arm and said, “Say grace, Grampy, say grace.” So with their heads bowed, Grandpa thanked God for his love and for the food that He had again provided for them, in the name of Lord Jesus Christ.
Grandpa’s prayer had especially pleased Nathan, so when their eyes opened he looked up at his grandpa with a satisfied smile and said, “ The Lord Jesus loves that !”
Reflection
What a truth and lesson we have learned from a three-year-old. The Lord does love to hear our thankfulness for everything He has provided for us. Salvation from our sins is, of course, the greatest. But our food, health, and safety are included in His daily care for us, too.
Thought for the day
Live in gratitude. When you are thankful for what you have, you are always rewarded with more.
Prayer
Kindly join your hands and bow your heads in the prayer which will be followed by the Lord’s Prayer
Thank you, Lord, for this new day and the blessings you have bestowed on us. You have provided for us in abundance. You have given us a wonderful family and friends. Also, thank you, Lord, for keeping us safe. And Lord, I am so grateful for keeping those around me safe and loved.
For all this and more we thank You, O loving Lord for your abundant grace and mercy.
Lord, we offer a special prayer for the sick and ask you to put your healing touch over them.
Lord we also ask for special blessings for the ones who are celebrating their birthdays today.
Lord, we ask you to guide us on the right path. We pray that you remind us of just how blessed we are and that you never allow us to forget to show gratitude in prayer and returned acts of kindness. We make this prayer in your name our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
Lord’s Prayer
