Saying Thanks So many million prayers arise, Propelled by hope into the skies. How many of that vast array Are simply thanks for one more day? Not asking for a single thing. Just letting grateful phrases sing, To let God know how much we care About the marvelous works we share, That he created joyously, Providing well for you and me. So let us not forget to say A fervent "thank you" every day! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (01-04-2002 08:02 PM).] |

Yes Trillium, so many times we treat God as if he were Santa Claus asking and then forgetting to say thank you. Joyce |

Oh, that we should not neglect to be thankful nor full of gratitude toward our Lord and Savior... Your poem reflects so profoundly for me the warning that states that men became vain in their imaginations because when they knew God they glorified Him not and neither were they thankful. Thank you for emphasizing this very important point in Christian living. -Bob |

Thank you for writing this, Trillium. Love is only meaningful when it is received. Saying thank you is a way to show that we do indeed receive and appreciate love that is given. And isn't this a wonderful way to make that love offered, complete? -newell Bringing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com [This message has been edited by Silver Streak (01-06-2002 05:02 PM).] |
