A Thanksgiving Day Prayer
Lord, so often times, as any other day. When we sit down to our meal and pray. We hurry along and make fast the blessing. Thanks, amen. Now please pass the dressing. We're slaves to the olfactory overload. We must rush our prayer before the food gets cold. But Lord, I'd like to take a few minute more. To really give thanks to what I'm thankful for. For my family, my health, a nice soft bed. My friends, my freedom, a roof over my head. I'm thankful right now to be surrounded by those. Whose lives touch me more than they'll ever possibly know. Thankful Lord, that You've blessed me beyond measure. Thankful that in my heart lives life's greatest treasure. That You, dear Jesus, reside in that place. And I'm ever so grateful for Your unending grace. So please, heavenly Father, bless this food You've provided. And bless each and every person invited. Amen!
