Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your boundless grace and mercy. Your Word tells us in Ephesians 2:8-9, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." We acknowledge that it is Your grace that sustains us and Your mercy that renews us each day.
Lord, thank You for being a constant source of love and compassion. As it is written in Lamentations 3:22-23, "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness." We are grateful for the ways You care for us and guide us through every challenge and triumph.
Father, we lift up our dear friend who is thankful for Your grace and mercy. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Continue to pour out Your blessings upon them and lead them in paths of righteousness for Your name's sake.
We pray all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus, Amen.
