THANK YOU GOD FOR EVERYTHING

Thanksgiving Prayer by Helen Steiner Rice

Thank you, God, for everything---
the big things and the small,
for "every good gift comes from God"---
the giver of them all.
And all too often we accept
without any thanks or praise
The gifts God sends as blessings
each day in many ways.
And so at this Thanksgiving time
we offer up a prayer
To thank you, God, for giving us
a lot more than our share.
First, thank You for the little things
that often come our way,
The things we take for granted but
don't mention when we pray.
The unexpected courtesy,
the thoughtful, kindly deed,
A hand reached out to help us
in the time of sudden need.
Oh, make us more aware, dear God
Of little daily graces
That come to us with "sweet
surprise" from never-dreamed-of places.
Then thank You for the miracles
we are much too blind to see,
And give us new awareness
of our many gifts from Thee,
And help us to remember that the
key to life and living
is to make each prayer a prayer of
thanks and every day Thanksgiving.

Enter His gates with Thanksgiving and His coursts with praise. Give thanks to Him; bless His name. Psalm 100:4

THANKS FOR VISITING! GOD BLESS YOU!
