Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and praise. Thank You, Lord, for the many blessings You have bestowed upon Bangaen. Your Word says, "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (1 Thessalonians 5:18). We are indeed thankful for Your provision and grace.
Thank You, Lord, for making it possible for Bangaen's DNA counselor to take them back after previous challenges with inpatient treatment. We acknowledge Your hand in this, knowing that "You, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high" (Psalm 3:3).
We also give thanks for the shoes that fit perfectly, a tangible reminder that You provide for our every need, as Your Word tells us, "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19).
Thank You for the new job opportunities that have arisen. We pray for wisdom and guidance in navigating these opportunities, trusting in Your promise that "I can do all this through him who gives me strength" (Philippians 4:13).
We are grateful for the knowledge and skills Bangaen is acquiring in learning the irrigation routine. May this learning be fruitful and bring about good results, as it is written, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters" (Colossians 3:23).
Thank You for the food box provided through a friend. Your Word reminds us of Your provision: "The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing" (Psalm 23:1). We are grateful for this tangible sign of Your care and provision.
We also thank You for the recycling bottles and cans found to help with funeral expenses. May this act of resourcefulness be blessed and multiplied, as Your Word says, "And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work" (2 Corinthians 9:8).
Lastly, we lift up Bangaen's son who is writing his lyrics. May his creativity be inspired by You, Lord, and may his words bring glory to Your name. As it is written, "Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth" (Psalm 96:1).
We offer this prayer in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer.
Amen.
