A Prayer of Gratitude: Neighbors

“Look to the interests of others” (Philippians 2:4, paraphrased).

“Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2 ESV).

Keep in mind neighbors who live nearby that you know.

Manifest your gratitude:

Acknowledge your neighbors with greetings and smiles when you encounter them.
Give a helping hand if you see a neighbor could benefit from your assistance.
Be considerate by not being loud and rowdy at inappropriate times (such as early in the morning or late in the evening).

Prayer for gratitude: Heavenly Father, thank You for the people who live nearby and the opportunity to know them. Help me to remember that they are greatly loved by You. Please show me ways to be a blessing to them through greetings, being considerate, and deeds of kindness. Amen.

Prayer of gratitude: Thank You, Heavenly Father, for my neighbors. We know they are each special in Your eyes and loved by You. Help them to have a good day; be with them and guide them through any difficulties they might encounter. Bless them for the greetings and smiles they share, and for the kindness they have shown to my family and me.
