A Prayer Of Thanksgiving

By Rev. Cathy Stentzel

We come to give you thanks, O God.
But how can any words be adequate to thank you for absolutely everything?
All that we are and all that we have comes from you.
Help us to learn the words of praise and thanksgiving everyday, as we strive in gratitude to love you more and more.
And help us to learn and do those things that will lead us and our neighbors to that Great Thanksgiving Day when all will be fed, and all will understand each other, and all will have good schools, good jobs, and good health care.
Bless this food and use it to energize us for your work of justice.
Amen.
