Father, today is heavy. I don't feel like thanking You. But I am choosing to anyway.
I see the weight in my shoulders. I hear the noise in my head. I know the list is long and the strength is short. Still, I name what is good.
Thank You for the coffee that warmed my hands. Thank You for the quiet minute before the alarm. Thank You for the breath that came easy just now.
I am not denying the hard. I am placing it beside the gift. I am letting both be true.
In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
