Life's Little Prayer Book
Giving Thanks ~19~
O God, we give you thanks for giving us each other—
For being together, which makes such a difference;
For having a good home, and for what we do there;
For games to play, and books and bikes and things to use;
For adventures to share, and dreams to dream of the future;
Save us from spoiling things—
By being conceited;
By being disobedient;
By being untrustworthy.
We want to get the very best out of each day that you give us—
Out of each job;
Out of each meal;
Out of each game;
Out of each friendship.
Show us how to do this in the way that Jesus did.
And for his sake.
