Happy Thanksgiving


Today, I want to thank you God for all that You have done;
I'm thankful for another day to love and praise Your Son,
I'm thankful that You gave me strength to rise up from my bed,
I'm thankful for Your Holy Book and all the words You said,
I'm thankful that I'm living proof that Jesus saves today,
I'm thankful that You hear my voice each time I kneel and pray,
I'm thankful for Your morning sun that rises in the sky,
I'm thankful that You give me Peace when loved ones say good-by,
I'm thankful for Your coming rain that waters all the seeds,
I'm thankful that You care so much and render all my needs,
I'm thankful for Your lasting Joy that comforts me and heals,
I'm thankful for Your sheltered rest and each and every meal,
I'm thankful for Your Love, Your Hope, Your Mercy, and Your Grace,
I'm thankful for Your smiles I see upon each loving face,
I'm thankful for each given breath and thankful for my life,
I'm thankful for my family, especially my Wife,
I'm thankful for my relatives, my Mother and my Dad,
I'm thankful for my little ones--and even when they're bad--
I'm thankful for the little things, I'm thankful for them much,
I'm thankful for my cat, my fond possessions, and of such,
I'm thankful that I have a church who's like my family,
I'm thankful for my poet friends who mean the world to me,
I'm thankful that I'm thankful that I'm thankful as can be,
Today, I want to thank You God for all that You have done,
But I'm afraid there's just too much to list them every one.

God bless and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Margherita,

Thankyou for your Thanksgiving wishes and I do believe that you are right that this time we have on earth will not be time enough and even when we get to eternity, still, we'll never run out of words to thank him enough... Amen. Thanks again and God bless. -Bob

Enchantress,

Thank you for the happy Thanksgiving wishes and the beautiful card that shows to me the pilgrimage of our religious liberties as first expressed by our ancestors. Yes, may we not forget!!! Thanks again and I do hope that your Thanksgiving was truly blessed as well. -Bob
