Today we give thanks to God almighty, maker of heaven and
earth, author of life and love, and the one who has claimed us as his own for
all eternity.
We give thanks for our every breath, every beat of our
hearts, and every minute of every day, for the very day is a holy thing as it
is set apart in our lives as the time to bring God glory.
The sun rises and sets at his pleasure. The wind proclaims his might and fury and its
absence breathes his peace.
The newborn babe reveals the potential that he granted to
all of us. The tired and weary soul
witnesses to his ceaseless mercy that gives worldly status no rank.
His invitation to receive his grace belies the justice and
judgment that we deserve.
Merciful and loving God, we give you thanks!
Thanks be to God!
Amen.
