Another Day - Another Blessing

This poem was on my heart this morning; I hope that it blesses you.

 

 

For the many blessings, great and small

Thank YOU, LORD GOD

For them all.

YOU have been mindful of me

From the day that I was born

So, it is in the twilight of my life

That I want to offer these verses of poetry.

For the times when I was happy

And for the times that I was sad

Thank YOU for giving me to understand

That my life goes according to YOUR plan.

Thank YOU for allowing my faith

In YOU to fill my mind

So that I could keep stepping on

Despite the vagaries that life put me through.

Thank YOU, LORD, for giving me

Faith of the resilient kind

For the world to see and

Thereby be drawn to THEE.

Thank YOU for the avenue of prayer

And for the built-in comfort found there

And thank YOU for my being acquainted

With the phenomenon, I call "skipping joy"...

I just want to say, "Thank YOU

For the infinite things YOU do

In short, I love the very thought of YOU!"©
