We don't only give thanks and prayers for those who have fallen. We also give thanks to those that still serve.

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers. (Ephesians 1:16)

The most meaningful and spiritual prayers I have experienced contained many expressions of thanks and few, if any, requests.

Everything I've done I've just fallen into.

Is there something in your spirit that keeps telling you it should be different: more interesting, more engaging, more creative, more profound? Does your prayer life feel like you're eating the same food over and over every day - mixing the same ingredients but hoping for a new, more enticing dish?
