A Thanksgiving Day Prayer By Jacque E Gibbons







We call on the Name of the Lord,
God of the blood covenant with Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, and Jacob,
God of Israel,
God, the Great Spirit of my People of the Middle Waters,
God the Father of Jesus Christ through whom we inherit Your covenant with Abraham.

We thank You for Your many blessing.  Your gifts to us are without number and often beyond our understanding. 

Thank You for bringing us into the light of wisdom that leads us to happiness and understanding. 
Thank You for helping us to remember and care for those less fortunate than ourselves. 
Thank You for looking after those in harm’s way. 
Thank You for the opportunities and challenges of the year ahead. 
Thank You for giving us the courage to face our failures.
Thank You for helping us to remain humble when we succeed.

Thank You for our family, especially the children of the new generation, and for our friends, for it is through all them that we really begin to understand God’s love. 

Finally, thank You for giving us this day together.

Amen.
