I’m Grateful to Be Alive

This is the obvious one, right? The first thing that pops into your mind when asked, “What are you grateful for?” I'M GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE! As we’ve seen and experienced on personal levels, the Covid-19 pandemic taught us that we must be grateful for every moment. But before we breeze by this first day with a simple, “Thank God I woke up today!”, let’s go deeper and ask what about our lives are we most grateful to God for? What does it mean to be alive? Are you grateful for your heart that pumps blood into the brain? Are you grateful for your lungs that pass oxygen into your bloodstream?

Today, take time to write 10 specific details about your life that you are grateful for. What are you able to do today because you are breathing?

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we thank you for the life you have breathed into us. Thank you for giving us another chance to glorify Your name. You didn’t have to do it but you did and for that, we are so grateful. Let us never take for granted our beating hearts, our lungs, and the blood running through our veins. Being alive is a gift. Thank you for this gift today Lord. AMEN.
