Lord, inspire in us a heart of gratitude; In the sorrow In the joy In the beauty In the brokenness In pain In triumph In plenty In want In the darkness In the light. In all things, May we give thanks.

Hope is the anchor amidst every storm of life.

Almighty and merciful God,
you break the power of evil
and make all things new
in your Son Jesus Christ, the King of the universe.
May all in heaven and earth proclaim your glory
and never cease to praise you.
 Amen. #ChristTheKing
