Day 196 of the journey
With Thanksgiving
Today's stop rests on Philippians 4:6. It takes about a minute.
“In every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
Philippians 4:6
The reflection
Thanksgiving is wedged right in the middle of anxious asking, as if to steady it.
One step forward
Add one line of thanks to whatever you are asking for today.
A short prayer
Lord, you said it and I want to believe it. Where I can't yet, hold me anyway. Let these words go with me into the rest of today. Amen.
