ARE YOUR THANKS FULL?

Remember to be thankful
In all that you say and do.
Be thankful for all things,
No matter what you're going through.
Be thankful in the good times
And be thankful in the bad.
Regardless of the times,
Be thankful for the times you've had.
Be thankful for the simple things
Like food or your next breath.
Be thankful for the complex things
Like life or even death.
Be thankful for the natural things
Of earth that God has made.
Be thakful for the Heavenly Host
In joyful masquerade.
Be thankful unto everyone
In whom you must depend.
Be thankful for relationships
Of your family and best friend.
Be thankful unto God
Who watches over your life and soul
To make absolutely sure
That your thanks are always full.

Bob; This poem is simply delightful, cleverly written and full of wonderful wisdom. "attitude of gratitude"...I needed the reminder. Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

This was certainly inspired wasn't it? So true, and so often do we take for granted the people around us, the things around us. Thank you for such a beautiful reminder!

God does have a sense humor. Just take a look at the platypus!
