Suggested prayer: Thank you, Lord, for choosing me to be your child. I have done nothing to deserve this great gift, but I ask that you help me live a life of gratitude for all you have done in me. When I begin to doubt myself because of what others say, remind me who I am and help me serve you faithfully. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
