Gifts Both Great and Small

A prayer prompted by praying with friends in Ghana who pray and give thanks for everything, from resting well through the night to waking up the next morning.

Gracious God,

As I begin the day,
may I remember
to trust in your grace
for what I need,
no matter how great,
no matter how small.

And as I end this day,
may I remember to give thanks
for what I have been given,
no matter how great,
no matter how small.

For every good thing
is a gift from you,
and even a small gift
is priceless when received
from the hand of God.

Amen
