SAYING THANK YOU!

SAYING THANK YOU!


GRATITUDE is a funny
Thing=no matter how hard
That we try=
We seem


To take our lives
FOR GRANTED=and all the
BLESSINGS that we have


“Jesus said in reply'=
'Ten were cleansed=were they NOT?
WHERE are the other nine?'” Luke 17:17


ONLY one of ten
RETURNED to Jesus
To say THANK YOU for
Their healing


I wonder
HOW MANY of us
Say thank you
To Jesus=EVERY DAY


For the BLESSINGS
In life that we have
For the roofs
Over our head
For the blessings of FOOD
And for ALL the material
Things that we have


THANK YOU LORD
For our very lives


“I will give THANKS
To the Lord
Because of his righteousness


I will
Sing the praises
Of the name
Of the Lord MOST HIGH” Psalm 7:17


“But THANKS be to God
He gives us
The victory
Through our Lord
Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 15:57


“THANKS be to God
For his INDESCRIBABLE GIFT” 2 Corinthians 9:15


Yes=thank you to the Lord
For our very NEXT HEARTBEAT
Thank you for
The indescribable GIFT OF LIFE


YES=having been so CLOSE
To death on multiple occasions
I have much GRATITUDE
For this gift of LIFE


I love that I have a
ROOF over my head
And I am most APPRECIATIVE
For this food on the table


Living life with a SENSE OF WONDER
Living life with a
Sense of gratitude


HOW often do we REFLECT
On the blessings that we have
In this life?


LOOK AROUND=how many of us
Don't even have the BASICS NEEDED
In this life


SAYING THANK YOU
Living life with gratitude


“Let the message of Christ
Dwell among you richly
As you teach


And admonish one another
With all wisdom
Through psalms=hymns
And songs
From the SPIRIT


Singing to god
With GRATITUDE
In your hearts” Colossians 3:16


Let us ALL RETURN
To the Lord
Like the ONE
And GIVE THANKS
To the Lord TODAY


In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our EVER GRATEFUL God the FATHER!
