Praying With Thanksgiving, Praise, and Worship
Life can be overwhelming, whether with good or with bad, and sometimes just the mix of the two makes our heads spin. When you can't find the words to express what you'd like to say to our Heavenly Father, remember the Holy Spirit takes our meekest groaning and intercedes on our behalf in the heavenly realm (Romans 8:26,27).
Meanwhile, sometimes we just need a kickstart to get our thoughts flowing so we can express ourselves to God from the depths of our hearts. That's what these prayers are for--to act as a heart prompt and help encourage us as we commune with our Lord. Use them however they are beneficial for you in your spiritual journey.

God's Blessings
Lord, I am humbled and excited as I gaze in wonder at the blessings You have surrounded me with in my life! I know life is not always perfect and peaceful, but that I can always have peace in You. And at this moment, Lord, I am overwhelmed by how truly amazing You are. You have astounded me with how well You know my heart, and how deeply You have moved me by how You have orchestrated events in my life.
Thank You!

God's Faithfulness
Lord,
Today amidst struggles and stresses, chaos and fear of the unknown, I praise You for Your strength. When I am weak, you are strong. Thank you! I'm safe when I am with You, because You are always faithful.
"O Lord God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You....The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours; the world and all it contains, You have founded them." ~Psalm 89:8,11
It is so comforting to know that You hold the whole world in Your capable hands, Lord. And through it all, You are intricately attuned to my little piece of this world--my experience moves You, You know every detail, and You smile and cry along with me at every turn. What a wonderful peace I feel at the thought of Your arms around me, Your Holy Spirit guiding my steps and walking alongside me.

God's Mercy
Lord,
Through Your mercies we are not consumed by all that life throws our way, because You are so unfailingly compassionate. Every day your mercy toward us is renewed, for you are awesomely faithful to us! My soul cries out with praise, saying "The Lord is my portion, therefore I hope in Him!" (Lamentations 3:22-24, paraphrased)
I am so thankful today, Lord, for Your unfailing mercy amidst my failing humanity. Hope is a beautiful gift that I have in you. Tomorrow is a new opportunity for me to live for You, and I have confidence knowing that with every tomorrow, Your compassion toward will be renewed as You lift me up out of the pitfalls of life.
