Lord, this Thanksgiving I have so much to give thanks for...

THANKS for GIVING me a family who loves me.
(I know it isn't always easy for them.)

THANKS for GIVING me a home to live in.
(It's so easy for me to take it for granted.)

THANKS for GIVING me good health.
(Every breath I take comes from You.)

THANKS for GIVING me friends.
(How precious they are to me!)

THANKS for GIVING me the privilege of praying to You.
(What a loving and personal God You are!)

THANKS for GIVING me opportunities to serve You.
(Anything not done for you is chaff in the wind.)

THANKS for GIVING me grace to live each day.
(Without Your grace, I would be lost.)

THANKS for GIVING me Your Word.
(It is food for this hungry soul of mine.)

MOST OF ALL

THANKS for GIVING me new life in Christ.
(What a difference You've made in my life!)

TO YOU BELONGS ETERNAL PRAISE!

Who walks in His ways. (Psalm 128:1)
