Thanksgiving: Fill-in-the-Blank Blessing

Listen as Kevin leads you through a simple, fill-in-the-blank meditation focused on gratitude and appreciation. Reflect on and write down two attributes of God you appreciate, one thing you are celebrating today, and three things you are most grateful for today before thanking God for all of the things you are grateful for.

Kevin: We're going to start with me asking just a few questions that I'd like you to reflect on. If you want to write your answers down, that'd be great, but if not, you can just call them to mind as well.

So the first question is, what are two attributes of God you appreciate most today?

The next question is, what's one thing you're celebrating today?

And finally, name three things you're most grateful for today. So, this meditation is a fill in the blank blessing. As I read this blessing, reflect on these things that you are grateful for. And when I pause, fill in your own words to complete the blessing. Let's pray.

God, thank you for being _______. Today, I will choose to celebrate ______ because I see this as a gift from you. Today I will take time to reflect on _______ because I'd like to remember. 

I thank you for all the blessings in my life, but today I'm most grateful for these three. The first is __________. The second is ___________ and finally _________, and so I conclude by simply saying, “thank you.”
