God is smiling upon me,
It only stands to reason.
Look at my wonderful life,
And all the great he has done.

My family, My life’s breath.
They give me strength and love.
Who else could give me such a gift,
Except our God above.

My friends, and their support,
Who would never miss my call.
Always present, always near.
They pick me up, when I fall.

My life, from then till now,
and everything I have done.
Has been blessed in every way,
He is the Magnificent One.

The Alpha and Omega,
Creator of the Heavens.
Jehovah Jirah, Jehovah Ratha.
Our Sacrificial Lamb.

If I could give my life,
Reflecting upon all you do.
Truly without a doubt,
I would give it back to you.

I Love You,
Travis

Thank you Travis.You have a wonderful "attitude of gratitude". This is a sure sign of God's presence in a heart. What a beautiful poem. I'm reading it first thing this morning, and it will set the tone for my day. Thank you

there is love.
Where there is love,
there is peace.
Where there is peace,
there is GOD.
Where there is GOD,
there is no need.

God does indeed give us gems each day if we would only notice. Your expressions of thankfulness reminds me that I to have much to be thankful for. God Bless and Thank you for the reminder. Wonderful!
