Thankful

Sometimes I just need to bow down and give God thanks. No requests, no complaining, no discontent for situations before me, no question as to why things are as they are, so I share with you my prayer of thanksgiving for this day... for today is the day that God has made. He will be with me through out it, his grace is sufficient for all the may happen and the circumstances that have been rolled out before me. For if God is with me who can be against me.

Lord, I thank you for my blessings each precious day,
I thank you for listening whenever I pray.

I thank you for answering my prayers every one,
I thank you for introducing me to your Holy Son.

I thank you for caring over my least little chore,
