A Thanks Living Prayer

Start your thanks with the little things:

the Sun, the Moon, the blue sky,
the beauty of the changing seasons,

a lady bug or the worm washed up in the rain.

These smaller daily miracles

Prime the flow of gratitude:

Thanks for family, food, health,

Work, faith, love and hope.

We soon discover everything is sacred,

worthy of awe and amazement.

There are no little thanks.

We have unlimited capacity for wonder.

Honor this part of you that is still a child.

Rejoice, for it is the core of gratitude

and fullness of life.
