Everything that comes your way is allowed to happen by God. The valleys help you get back to God. All that we have is from God. Be thankful for what you have. Thankfulness is the road back to God. All circumstances of life are from God. Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Just this once, Lord, I want to come to you with no problems, but simply to say, Thank You:
For your forgiveness when I fail;
For the sheer joy of sleep when I,m terribly tired;
For the silent strength of humility when pride overtakes me;
For the justice of your laws when men are cruel;
For the rememdies for sickness when I am ill;
For the assurance that you have made a place especially for me when I feel inadequate among my peers;
For the joy of helping others when I see people in need;
For the evidences of your will when I,m trying to find out what life is all about:
For the reality of your world, when I stray too far into fantasy;
For the rightness of reasonableness when I panic too quickly;
For the fun that refreshes when everything gets too serious;
For the renewal in moments of silence when I'm dizzy being busy in a hectic world.

Thank You Lord, for all these things. But most of all, thank you for your abiding presence that makes every day I live a day of thanks.

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High; - Psalm 92:1
Give thanks to the Lord every day! If you can't think of anything to be thankful for then you have a poor memory.
