Prayers of Praise and Thanksgiving

“My soul magnifies the Lord” — Mary’s song, prayed by an unwed teenager with every reason to be afraid. Praise in Scripture is rarely sung from easy circumstances; it is sung through them.

These prayers are for answered prayers, ordinary Tuesdays worth thanking God for, and the discipline of gratitude when it doesn’t come naturally.
