Christian Prayer›SECTION ONE PRAYER IN THE CHRISTIAN LIFE›CHAPTER ONE THE REVELATION OF PRAYER - THE UNIVERSAL CALL TO PRAYER›IV. Prayer of Thanksgiving
As in the prayer of petition, every event and need can become an offering of thanksgiving. the letters of St. Paul often begin and end with thanksgiving, and the Lord Jesus is always present in it: "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you"; "Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving."
