Heavenly Father, I call upon your name which is holy of all names. I take this moment to say thank you.
From the moment I am able to remember, I know I have complained and doubted but boasted of the abilities you have given me. For most of these times, I have been selfish and greedy and despite of these, you continue to love me and bless me like I am the only human being you have ever and will ever make.
Thank you so much for the air I breathe, for our livelihood and sources of income. For all the people that you send my way and have crossed my paths, truly Lord, you have surrounded my table with good friends.
Thank you most especially for my wife Malou and the 5 wonderful kids you have generously given to me. They have been and will always be the source of my human inspiration to live and to do more.
Help me to remember that every year as I celebrate my birthday, is not a celebration of what I have accomplished and done, but a celebration of another year of your love and blessings. Truly Lord, I have received more than what I deserve. I could only desire and pray every year as I get closer to being with you – that I can grow more of my love for you and to receive your grace and strength to accomplish the purpose for which you have made me.
I say this prayer in the name of your Son, my Lord Jesus. Amen.
