Father, Forgive me for the times I’ve focused on what I lack instead of the abundance You’ve placed in my life. Open my eyes to the blessings I take for granted each day. Give me a heart like Gabriella’s family—one marked by gratitude, joy, and a recognition of Your provision even in hard circumstances. Prepare my heart for tomorrow’s celebration and fill me with thankfulness that honors You. Transform my complaints into worship and my frustrations into praise. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
