Dear God, you have been our help in ages past, and you continue to be our help today. During the really tough times in life such as those we are experiencing now, we spend so much of our prayer time ASKING you for help. However today, with a thankful heart, we take time to PRAISE and THANK you for all the blessings you bestow on us and for giving us the knowledge and peace that you will always be our help, not only in times of trouble, but throughout the ages.
