A Prayer

Now Bless the God of all. who everywhere works great wonders, who fosters our growth from birth and deals with us according to His mercy. May He give us gladness of heart and may there be peace in our days in Israel, as in the days of old. May He entrust us to His mercy and may He deliver us in our days! –Sirach 50:22-24

The Greatness and the Goodness of God

I will extol You, My God and King and bless Your Name forever and ever! Every day I will bless You and praise Your Name forever and ever! Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; His greatness is unsearchable.

One generation shall laud Your works to another and shall declare Your mighty acts. On the glorious splendor of Your majesty and on Your wondrous works, I will meditate. The might of Your awesome deeds shall be proclaimed and I will declare Your greatness. They shall celebrate the fame of Your abundant goodness and shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.

The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. The Lord is good to all and His compassion is over all that He has made.

All Your works shall give Thanks to You, O Lord and all Your faithful shall bless You! They shall speak of the glory of Your Kingdom and tell of Your power, to make known to all people Your mighty deeds and the glorious splendor of Your Kingdom. Your Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

The Lord is faithful in all His Words and gracious in all His deeds. The Lord upholds all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down. They eyes of all look to You and You give them their food in due season. You open Your hand, satisfying the desire of every living thing. The Lord is just in all His ways and kind in all His doings. The Lord is near to all who call on Him; He also hears their cry and saves them. The Lord watches over all who love Him but all the wicked He will destroy.

My mouth will speak the praise(s) of the Lord and all flesh will bless His Holy Name forever and ever. –Psalm 145:1-21

Grace to you and peace from God Our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I give Thanks to My God always for you because of the grace of God that has been given you in Christ Jesus, for in every way you have been enriched in Him, in speech and knowledge of every kind — just as the testimony of Christ has been strengthened among you — so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gifts as you wait for the revealing of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He will also strengthen you to the end, so that you may be blameless on the day of Our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful; By Him you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ Our Lord. –1 Corinthians 1:3-9

Give Thanks in all circumstances; For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. –1 Thessalonians 5:18
