With a Grateful Heart, Begin the New Day

Merciful Father, thank you for this new day You give us.

Illuminate my steps and fill my heart with sincere joy.

Guide every word and action of mine along today's journey.

Grant me strength to face every challenge.

Sustain my faith and make me a witness of Your goodness.

Watch over those I love and those who are alone in the world.

I entrust every moment of this day to the hands of Mary, good Mother.

Amen. 🌿
