Family Day 2: Seeds of Gratitude
Dive into the Word
"Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget nat all His benefits - who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." - Psalm 103:1-5 (NIV)
Family Moment
Who do you think it's important for us to give thanks to God, even for things that might seem ordinary? Make a top 10 list of things you are each thankful for. Share your lists with one another aloud, and thank God together for each thing, no matter how small. Post the list on the fridge or somewhere you can see it, and add one more thing you are grateful for each day this week.
Let's Pray!
- Think about the amazing things God created, like the deep oceans and tall mountains, and how He takes care of us like a loving shepherd; let's be thankful for His greatness and love!
- Reflect: I'm thankful for the love of God and for all He does for me.
- Pray: "Dear God, help me remember to be thankful for all the good things You have for me each day. Amen."
