Oh God of love and compassion, we gather before You on this new day, acknowledging Your goodness and mercy. Just as Ecclesiastes 9:7 teaches us, we ask that You grant us the grace to enjoy life with joy and gratitude.

May we, Lord, find joy in the small blessings that surround us daily, in the moments of communion with our loved ones and in the work we carry out with dedication. May every smile shared, every act of kindness and every moment of peace remind us of Your love present in our lives.

Help us to live this day with wisdom and discernment, always seeking to do good to others and spread Your light wherever we go. May we face challenges with courage and faith, trusting in Your guidance and protection every step of the way.

Lord, may Your grace surround us and strengthen us, enabling us to live according to Your principles of love and justice. May our actions and words reflect Your kindness and compassion, making the world a better place for everyone.

In the name of the Love that unites and sustains us, we pray,

Amen.

This verse reminds us of the importance of enjoying life with joy and gratitude, enjoying the blessings that God gives us. It's an invitation to appreciate the good times and find joy in the little things in life.
