James 1:2-4 EasyEnglish Bible
Some days it can be hard to feel thankful when there’s a cranky kid, 13 loads of dirty clothes, a kitchen that looks like a crime scene, and a busted radiator. But no matter the setbacks and aggravations, and no matter how we feel, one thing remains the same - God is present in the trials we face. Even the smallest of trials do not go unnoticed by Him.
Thank Him for the hard stuff. Thank Him for using these things to strengthen your dependency on Him and your faith in Him. Pray for trust in Him on the hardest of days and keep praises on your lips.

Prayer:
Father,
We thank You for who You are — not just for what You give. We thank You for the strength You’ve given us to face this season, for the comfort You’ve placed in our hearts, and for the hope You’ve kept alive when we felt discouraged. We thank You for Your mercy, Your grace, and Your unchanging love,
even when our circumstances are heavy. Thank You for the small and big blessings that surround us, for the people who have been near us, and for the peace that surpasses all understanding. Help us to rest in the truth that You are with us in every trial, and that Your plans are for our good and our hope. In Jesus’ Name, we pray, Amen
