We are all blessed by God each day

Lord God, thank you for this new life and a new day. These alone are proof that you constantly bless and sustain us each day. Grant us a sense of gratitude and thankfulness to you, starting from small and routine things which sustain us in all we do. For precisely this is what you meant, “Blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.” So, help me God. This we ask through Jesus Christ.

Amen.
 
Mary, Queen of your Servants. pray for us.
