A Prayer for Gratitude When Life Feels Hard | Your Daily Prayer

Audio By Carbonatix

When loss is loud, when circumstances feel unfair, and when your heart is carrying more than it can hold, “be thankful” can sound like an unreachable goal. This devotional doesn’t minimize that reality—it starts in the middle of it. The author describes sitting beside her terminally ill daughter on a beautiful day she couldn’t enjoy outside, and the ache of watching someone you love miss what feels so simple. In that raw moment, her prayer was honest—more like a complaint than praise.
