Spirit, help me to be grateful for all the things in my life — small and large. Today, help me to see all the ways clean water adds benefit to my life.

I tend to start my gratitude list by being thankful for clean running water. That’s a big deal for some people in this world, but if I break it down and think about the connection of that clean running water and how it makes life easier, it’s profound.

With cleaning running water:

I can brush my teeth and have healthier teeth.
I can take a drink from the tap and hydrate.
I can give my dog water so she can stay hydrated.
I can take a shower and wash my hair.
I can wash my hands.
I don’t have to walk a long distance and carry heavy buckets of water, which gives me time to do other things.
I can flush my toilet.
