SAYING THANK YOU=ESPECIALLY NOW

SAYING THANK YOU=ESPECIALLY NOW


We live in TOUGH TIMES=
We all are at RISK-
Right now=
Especially with this Corona virus


We NEED to remember
To say THANK YOU to God
And Jesus=
For all the days
That we have LIVED


For all the GOOD TIMES=and
ALL the good people
We have met


Saying thank you
To the Lord for my
LONG LIFE=
Especially after being
At such a risk
Early in life


“I will EXTOL YOU=
O Lord=
For you
Drew me clear........” Psalm 30:2


Psalm 30 is a
BEAUTIFUL PRAYER of THANKSGIVING


It is for GOD'S DELIVERANCE
From defeat=from going down
From mourning


Today might be a GOOD DAY
To say thank you to GOD
And ask him to
DELIVER us once again


This world=our country=
Our neighbors=and ourselves
From the Corona virus


THANK YOU Dear Lord God=
Our Savior and Redeemer
For all the days
Of our life=and for all the days
WE STILL HAVE LEFT


“Enter his gates
WITH THANKSGIVING
And his courts
With praise


Give THANKS to him
And praise his name” Psalm 100:4


“BUT THANKS be to God
Who always leads us
As captives=
In Christ's triumphal procession


And uses us
To spread the aroma
Of the knowledge
Of him everywhere” 2 Corinthians 2:14


Jesus delivers us
Through his teachings


Delivers us from fear=
“Fear not little flock”
From anxiety=
“Trust in God-trust also in me”


From self-preoccupation=
“LOVE ONE ANOTHER”
From a poor self-image=
“You are worth-
MORE than many sparrows”
From loneliness=
“I call you friends”


And so TODAY=JOIN with me
In composing=
A little prayer of THANKFULNESS
To God and Jesus


Dear LORD=
Thank you for our lives=
Thank you for
Our GOOD days gone by


Thank you
For the BLESSING OF LIFE-
For our loved ones-
For our graces-
And for the GIFTS
And talents=we have RECEIVED


Thank you for LIFE=please keep
US safe from the Corona virus
And ALL evil and illness in this world


Thank you Lord Jesus=and our
FOREVER PROTECTING FATHER
