I know Thanksgiving is all about
Giving thanks to God
For what he has given us
I am thankful
For the life he has given us
I am thankful
For the food he puts on our table
I am thankful
For Jesus dying for our sins
I am thankful
For the roof he has put over our heads
I am thankful
For the  wonderful family he has given me
I am thankful
For when I die
I can live eternally with Jesus
I am thankful
For the air I breathe
I am thankful
For him being in my heart forever
When I die I will be with Jesus
I wouldn't wait
To ask him into your heart.
I would while you can.
Don't wait forever
So ask him into your heart today.

Oh, talk about a picture of Child-like faith!  Not only is it full of sincere thanks and adoration, an invitation to come into the fold before it's too late says it all.  Thank you for sharing this beauty.

Cassie,

I am thankful
For you dear child and the Faith that you have shown.
I am thankful
For the words you have shared even though I am grown.
I am thankful
For the Love of Jesus has saved me many tears.
I am thankful
For He will keep you safe through your growing years.

Love in Christ,      Bob <><
