Grateful and Thankful

More Than A Day

As Thanksgiving Day rolls around,
It brings up some facts, quite profound.
We may think that we're poor,
Feel like bums, insecure,
But in truth, our riches astound.

We have friends and family we love;
We have guidance from heaven above.
We have so much more
Than they sell in a store,
We're wealthy, when push comes to shove.

So add up your blessings, I say;
Make Thanksgiving last more than a day.
Enjoy what you've got;
Realize it's a lot,
And you'll make all your cares go away.

Happy Thanksgiving,
from my family to yours.

Dear Jesus,

I don't know where to start. Ill start with the day you died on the cross because you loved me with all your heart. Thank you for this life you have given to me, and for these loved ones that surround me. Thank you for my children, their health and their love. Thank you for the husband that tucks me in each night with his arms so big and warm. Thank you for my church, for I love it that much. Thank you for my family, friends and kitties... yes, they too can't go unmentioned. Thank you for my salvation, and for the mansion being prepared for me up above. Thank you for the warm food I ate tonight, and every night before. Thank you for generosity, mercy and forgiveness. For so many times I deserve none of which I have. I am grateful, thankful and rich. So my Lord, Jesus..... THANK YOU from my heart to yours.

Thanks for posting that, sis! Happy Thanksgiving to you too. We DO need to celebrate it more than just once per year.
