🌸 Day 23: Grateful for Family
Scripture:
“A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.” (Proverbs 17:17, NLT)
Devotion
Family is one of God’s most tender gifts. Whether through blood, marriage, or chosen relationships, God surrounds us with people who love, support, and stand with us through every season. Family teaches us patience, forgiveness, unity, and unconditional love. Even when family life feels imperfect or complicated, God uses those relationships to refine us, strengthen us, and remind us that we are never meant to journey alone.
Today, pause to acknowledge the blessing of family, those who pray for you, encourage you, check on you, and hold space for you when life becomes heavy. Thank God not only for the people who raised you, but also for the people He has added to your life along the way. Every family connection is an expression of His love and provision.
Affirmation
I am grateful for the family God has placed in my life, both born and chosen.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for the gift of family. Bless the people You have placed in my life and strengthen every connection. Bring healing where there is strain, unity where there is division, and love where there is distance. Help me to be a source of encouragement and grace to my family today. Amen.
Reflection Question
What family member (or chosen family) are you especially grateful for today, and why?
