Always Thankful
giving thanks always for all things unto God and the
Father in the name of our Lord Jesus christ
Ephesians 5:20

We rob our own lives much more than we know
when we fail to respond or in any way show
our thanks for the blessings
     that daily are ours--
The warmth of the sun,
     the fragrance of flowers,
For the joy of enjoying
     and the fullness of living
Are found in the heart
     that is filled with thanksgiving.

Father thank you for blessings, that we are forgetting, thank you that we can get out of bed, that we can see, hear and speak and that we can sense your presence in our lives.  Thank you for the hope that we have in you.  Open our eyes this day to see the blessings of life that are about us.  In Jesus Name.


We are thankful that Russ and Janet are home from Florida, trusting that Cody is o.k. from the fender bender that Cody experienced(not his vehicle, but trusting that he is not injured), Yesterday  we had some challenging experiences, Alvin, Jerry's foster child is having some challenging moments with school, I had a student that is having some emotional problems, that we need to deal with again today.  But otherwise it was  o.k., Dad and I were in Cando for bible Study.
