thank you Lord God Almighty for
all of your creation including ME!
help me to do your will today with every person I meet.

Thank you for
Warmth from the sun
Fresh air
Spring
Rocks in the shape of hearts that I stumble on when I say out loud, “Lord, I love you!”
Thank you for rocks in all shapes and sizes and colors… I love rocks…

:irish3: The Blarney Stone comes to mind. Happy Early St. Patrick’s Day!
 
Thank you Lord for your goodness.
For the bright sun,
For work
For conversation
For food.
 
Thankful to be feeling well spiritually, emotionally, physically. I had a huge oppressive bout with depression last night.
The clouds have lifted praise God.

Dear Lord I do not ask that you take away my burdens, only that they do not crush me in despair and keep me from loving others.
As you will
Thank you Lord.
 
Gratitude for the prayer warriors on this site who continue to pray even when I forget.
Gratitude for peace of mind.
Gratitude for warm weather bringing people outside.
Gratitude for Romano Guardini who has written such edifying books and is a good friend in heaven.
Gratitude for my friend Tom, who I can share anything with
 
Lord I am grateful that you are God and I am not.
Because I am insincere, uncharitable, grasping, covetous, envious, and depressed, And I would not make a good God. I am grateful you are a loving Father and Lord of all hopefulness.

Lord Jesus, thank you for your presence through our trials. Be at our side. Touch us Lord Jesus in the midst of our miseries, that they might fade quickly.

I am grateful to work, to have a wonderful wife who is so patient with me. And for good health.
 
Today I’m grateful for sunshine and clouds, rain and snow, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, the mindful breath, health, movement, healing, and being comfortable with not knowing.
 
Today I am grateful to live in a country where I need not be concerned with war at my doorstep, abundant water supply, and my only worries are worries of luxury at the moment.
 
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve others.
For the opportunity to attend the sacrament of confession on this Day of Grace.
For my wife.
For friends.
For the basic necessities of life. Food, water, shelter, warm clothing.
 
I’m grateful for
health after a bout with sickness,
God loving me even when I can’t pray,
prayer,
the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass,
children of all ages and colors…
 
Today I am grateful for all of my teachers in life. My parents, Children and grandchildren. The drill instructors, former and current coworkers, the folks in front of me at the grocery check out or those I find irritating in traffic, those here on caf, the list seems endless of whom I’ve learned something from and for that I’m grateful.
 
I am grateful believe it or not, that God chastises me.
For uncomfortable situations that cause me to seek him with some desperation.
And for the fulfillment and joy that always always come from these eventually.

Thank you God. You are a good and awesome God.
 
Today I am grateful for the walk I took this morning, the fresh air, and fasting days that help me to see things with more clarity.
 
Today I am grateful for the ability to move, and think, and that my mother allowed me to take her to lunch today.
 
Greetings,
Today I’m grateful for renewal, family, fresh air, snow, and the journey.
 
Gratitude for work.
Just for the work itself, not for what it can can gain me, just for the work.
I am grateful for the opportunity to do something for the Lord, and to do it well for his sake and his people.
 
Today I’m grateful for this day. I’m also grateful that I’m finally learning to express my gratitude to others more freely.
 
I am grateful for the temptations I am to endure today, for the opportunity to give God glory by struggling through them.
 
Today I’m grateful for the daylight,
blooming houseplants,
a roof over my head,
a jacket,
and cough drops…
