Thank you, God, for caring about all the little things. Thank you for teaching us to trust you more. Thank you for encouraging us and building us up toward love and good deeds. Thank you for uniting us. We love you for who you are, even when bad things happen. We trust that you are doing your will around and through it all. Thank you for guarding our hearts. Thank you for not giving us too much to bear. Thank you for meeting all our needs and for keeping our families safe.

Help us to be more dependent on you and to be your hands and feet more, caring for others the way you do. Keep our hearts fixed on you. Help us to be understanding towards each other and not judgmental. Help us to be compassionate to one another in everything. Help your people to be characteristically loving. That we would be known for our love even by people who don’t believe in you and don’t want to hear about you.

Help us to be strong and persevering. Thank you for giving us more strength to get through what we’re going through than we even know what to do with. Thank you for this sweet and special time. Thank you for stopping the spread of coronavirus. Help people to stay where they are and to have all they need there, for however long as needed. Help us to hear from you during this time. Thank you for having your way in everything. Thank you for knowing and doing what is best. Thank you so much that we ultimately get to see you through everything, and you are our destination. I look forward to being with you more than anything! Thank you for this journey, Lord.
