Dear Friend,
We hope you are having a great weekend and are looking forward to the week ahead! As we walk through the neighborhood and see the emerging of flowers and trees coming to life, it's a good time to say a prayer of gratitude for all that God gives us, especially the Spring itself.
Here's an example of how easy such a prayer can be:
Dear Lord, thank you for the warmth of the sun and the beauty of new life blooming around us. As the earth awakens, I pray that you renew my heart and fill it with hope, joy, and gratitude for this fresh season. Amen.
