A Prayer about Thanking God for Special People

Have you thanked God lately for the people he’s put in your life?

On seeing them, Paul thanked God and took courage. Acts 28:15

Author God,

Since today is my husband’s birthday, 

and since people in Scripture 

often thank you for people you’ve blessed them with,

it seems fitting now 

to thank you for the people 

you have written into our stories:

Thank you for writing  

into my story.

Thank you for the ways they have supported me…

.

Thank you for the ways they have helped me grow…

Thank you for the ways they have given me courage to do hard things…

Thank you for the way they have comforted me when I was sad…

Thank you for the ways they have cheered me on in exciting times…

Thank you for —

In the name of our most faithful friend, Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Read Acts 28:15; Romans 1:8; 1 Corinthians 1:4; 1 Thessalonians 3:9; Ephesians 1:16

Suggestion: Consider telling the person or people you prayed for what you prayed. It will encourage their hearts to know how God has worked in your life through theirs.
