Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes; we have
plenty of food to eat.
Thank you for this pile of dirty, stinky laundry; we have
plenty of nice clothes to wear.
And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds;
they were so warm and comfortable last night. I know that
many have no bed.
My thanks to you, Lord, for this bathroom, complete with
all the splattered mirrors, soggy, grimy towels and dirty
lavatory; they are so convenient.
Thank you for this finger-smudged refrigerator that needs
defrosting so badly; It has served us faithfully for many
years. It is full of cold drinks and enough leftovers for
two or three meals.
Thank you, Lord, for this oven that absolutely must be
cleaned today. It has baked so many things over the
years.
The whole family is grateful for that tall grass that needs
mowing, the lawn that needs raking; we all enjoy the
yard.
Thank you, Lord, even for that slamming screen door. My
kids are healthy and able to run and play.
Lord, the presence of all these chores awaiting me says You
have richly blessed my family. I shall do them cheerfully
and I shall do them gratefully.
