“The Lord has been great with us, and we are glad.” Ps. 125

Gratitude is a quality that we need to exercise a little more every day. We can say that it is the key to living more aware that God constantly gives us everything and it all comes to us as gift, which is up to us to receive it all with immense gratitude. We do not ask for it and we do not deserve it, but it comes a gift freely given. Our response of gratitude helps us to be more attentive and even more joyful about what we are experiencing. Today, in our prayer, the invitation is for us to name, express, or simply pass through our minds what we want to thank God for, no matter the time of day: today, how have we felt that the Lord has been remarkably generous with us?
