EDITGratitude
I live on gifts I did not earn, and noticing them is my prayer.
Gratitude turns attention toward what sustains us; provision names what we still need and asks for it without shame. Nothing here promises wealth or manifests outcomes; these prayers practise trust and honesty about needs — material and spiritual — within a generous universe.

Today's prayer
EDITOriginal compositionPRACShared traditionGenerous Source, from whom every good thing flows unearned,
before I ask for anything, let me notice what has already arrived: breath I did not manufacture, water I did not invent, people who chose to stay, a mind that can register beauty at all. Gratitude is not a trick to attract more; it is simply the truth about how I have been living — on gift, on gift, on gift. Let thanks loosen my grip on what I clutch and open my eyes to what I overlooked. A grateful heart is not a passive one; it is an accurate one.
For all that has carried me here, mostly unnoticed: thank you. Amen.
