Poem
a farmer once lost most of his crop in a storm but he didn't complain he knew never to count on the might have-beens just thank God for whatever remains we need to learn to count our blessings for those things we have in hand and to thank God for all He has done and what for us He has planned the sun won't always shine down on you there will be darks days and some rain give God thanks for each day He wakes you up and for whatever time you have that remains for storms are always popping up, passing through or pouring down just have an attitude of gratitude that you're standing on higher ground God is watching over you and will send Angels to keep you from harm just trust in Him and thank Him for His ever-present loving arms Jesus healed ten lepers one day but only one came back to give Him thanks all ten recognized Him for Who He was and all ten addressed Him by rank they knew what He was capable of when they asked for His mercy and grace so why did only the Samaritan return to thank Him face to face? we live in a time where the economy has literally fallen apart homes in forclosure, millions of jobs lost and that's just the start the cost of living has escalated but our pay checks have stayed the same we need to place our faith in God as only He has the power to make change to have an attitude of gratitude for the God Who is able to sustain you when the world is in chaos and unstable to have an attitude of gratitude in moments of pain and despair knowing that you can count on God to give comfort and care He's aware of your doubts, depressions, heartaches and your fears He has the power to help you heal, recover and wipe away your tears we need to stop putting all the focus, emphasis and stress on that which we do not have but on that which we possess we need to have in our hearts the spirit of thanksgiving and praise Him for all we do have and for all to us He's given we need to give God all the honor and all the glory that we even have the ability to give a testimony so thank Him for your sons, daughters, your parents, husbands and wives thank Him for giving you the gift of the breath of life thank Him for the food that you have to eat thank Him for the clothes on your back and the shoes on your feet He has done so much for us the we can't even measure He has given us an abundance and many blessed treasures so fall down on your knees and give thanks to the Lord our God with an attitude of gratitude and the spirit of thanksgiving in your heart
