When you are trying to pray and don't know what to say, just open the Psalms and read out loud. Make the words your words and the prayers your prayers. In this psalm, we have a prayer of gratitude for God's provision. As you live your life, do you find yourself counting your blessings and thanking God for what you have, or are you just always wanting more? Do you view life from a place of abundance or from a place of scarcity? If you tend to take a more negative view, look around and find something each day to give thanks for.
Readings: 2 Chronicles 1:1-3:17; Romans 6:1-23; Psalm 16:1-11; Proverbs 19:20-21
