AN ORIGINAL SELAH37 PRAYER
God of life, thank you for this moment of gladness. Help me receive it without apology and share it without boasting. Let joy deepen my gratitude and widen my generosity. Keep me attentive to those whose day feels different, so celebration becomes an invitation rather than a measure of anyone’s worth. Amen.
