A Guided Prayer of Gratitude | Narrated by Phyllis Unkefer
This is a guided prayer of gratitude, created by the Cageless Birds.
Prayer:
Will you pause and pray with me today?
“Enter with the password: ‘Thank you!’ Make yourselves at home, talking praise. Thank him. Worship him. For God is sheer beauty, all-generous in love, loyal always and ever.” - Psalm 100:4-5, MSG
Holy Spirit, I enter your Presence through the gateway of gratitude. I invite You to help me reflect on these last several months with a thankful heart. Today, I thank You for the beauty that this year has held. I recall moments where I found my prayers answered by You. I remember the triumphs and victories you etched into my year. I call to mind circumstances I worried about that You met with Your provision, Your power, and Your care.
I collect these memories and hold them out before You. I let myself feel moved by Your tenderness for me, and I say, “Thank You.”
Holy Spirit, I invite You now to deepen my gratitude. As I reflect on the difficulties and heartaches of the year, I welcome Your perspective. I open up my honesty to You and let you come near to my disappointment and sorrow, and I let You hold the tension with me. I thank You, Jesus, that You are Emmanuel, God with us, and the Man of Sorrows.
I thank You for Your steady and reliable presence in the midst of every challenge I face. I thank You for the gifts that always seem to be highlighted in the contrast of pain: time, compassion, cherished memories, and Your loyal companionship. Thank You for being true to Your word: You have stayed with me. You never leave. Jesus, I receive Your comfort and Your companionship today. Thank You for Your dependable, and trustworthy love.
Amen.

    I relapsed on alcohol today. I'm drunk and found myself back here. I got a promotion unexpectedly at work today through my hard work being sober.. I guess I don't know how to handle feelings. Good or bad. It'll be alright though. There is a reason I'm doing this.

    Praise the beautiful Lord for your beautiful testimonial Matt. Only Jesus can heal as you persevered and held on Jesus was working and drawing you closer. My brother has been 100% bedbound for a year now. He became a Christian recently and me and sisters pray with him. I read him the whole bible yet he is shut down to thirsting after God yet his countenanceis changing. Jesusis moulding his characterthroughthis terrible hardship . I pray 🙏 🤲 the King comes in and heals his body. ❤ Bless you Matt. What an encouragement 👏 bless Gods plans for you to reach may broken people. 🙏 ❤ ❤😅

    As I was listening and praying this song, I inserted the names of my lost family members, my daughter, my sister and her husband. And then all the lost ones of the whole world. 🌎 Our Father knows all of their names. Holy Ghost come and kiss their eyes and heart and let them see 🙏🏼 in Jesus name. Amen. Please let it be so.

    I am on an Spiritual journey like no other, it has been long, and He has been with me every step of the way, still far from a cake walk, I could not make it up if I had to, neither could Hollywood, something most people would have to see to believe and most still don't, I am past the point of waiting or proving anything to those who I've been the kindest to, while, having the least and still giving, yet, been taken from the most, and the one thing they need they will not take, or more importantly just receive, I've help many while needing help, it's time for a change, but it also is a process I must endure, Melissa you and Johnathan and extended family I see here, are a big reason I'm still here and I thank God for you people, my people, I can only imagine if I had a place of safety serenity and peace, to connect, pray, and worship God, through it all I do still connect rather easily these days but I also feel their frustration more and more. I am thankful to God for all He is, was, and will always be and the one of a kind love He Has For Me, I hope I brought a little light into your lives, as you all brought so much into mine, just to know people like you guys exits out there is inspiring enough, but true to form, being who you are, you continue giving as you bless us with your music, the world owes you a debt of gratitude, and if i could do anything at all to help, just let me know what where when? I love you guys, AllGloryToGod,,,

    My wife and I met Jonathan and Melissa just once when they came to our church, Grace Church in High Point, NC for a worship night 20+ years ago. Young they were, but were we not all. It was a beautiful night. I can remember a word from the Lord came through pastor Rodney. He said "if you want to get closer to Heaven, just drive a few miles down to Sophia." God bless the two of you. You have been a great blessing to us and our children.
