Prayers of Thanksgiving
Not every prayer is a request. Many of the prayers we carry to Jerusalem are simply "thank you": for a recovery, a birth, a marriage, or a prayer that was answered.
Many people choose the Garden Tomb for these prayers.
Thanksgiving for an Answered Prayer
Lord, I asked, and You heard me. Thank You for [what happened]. I do not want to forget this moment. Let my gratitude become trust for the next time I am afraid. Amen.
Thanksgiving for a Recovery
Father, thank You for bringing [name] through illness. Thank You for the doctors, nurses and friends who helped along the way. Let this new strength be used for good, and let us never forget Your faithfulness. Amen.
Thanksgiving for a New Baby
Creator God, thank You for the gift of [baby's name]. Bless this little one with health, joy and a life full of love. Give the parents wisdom and patience, and surround this family with Your peace. Amen.
