Giving Thanks

Hi Leroy….a poem of thanks for you…

When i awaken with each new day morn
i am thankful for the sunlights adorn
it means new opportunities are awaiting
for me to partake in the joys of creating

When i go to work at my place of employment
i take a deep breathe of sincere enjoyment
for the appreciation of new life i am privileged to see
and the love surrounding each new family

When i grow weary at the end of a day
in solitude i might choose to stay
or go to a place of quiet retreat
till silence is heard or refresh is complete.

When i contemplate all that i have been thru
its with a grateful heart that i think of you
for the kindness or compassion that you represent
an angelic being of love truly heaven sent

When my eyes close down finally for the night
i think of all i did that hopefully was right
and i thank God for the wonders of my day
that i was blessed to experience life, loving it my way.

Loving hugs, gisl

Prayer, giving thanks

Prayer is talking to God. It can not succeed until you realize that it asks for nothing. God knows all your questions before you ask; supplies all your needs before you request. Pray, then, to receive what is given; to accept what is already there. Real prayer is a melody of thanksgiving and love. Forget the things you think you need, and let them go into God’s hands. Prayer is a time of stepping aside; letting-go of the world; a time of peace and solitude; a time to speak of love and thanksgiving. God will answer you from the vastness of forever. His answers are for all of eternity, yet contain the specific knowledge you need.
