Notes About The Poem

james 1 17s - Clip Art Library

Gifts We're Given By God

We’re given a heart to love with
We’re given a mind to think with
We’re given a Creator to humble us
We’re given experiences for blessings and lessons in life

Thanks, Joe. I've been very fortunate so far. I keep confessing and He keeps blessing. Have a pleasant week, my friend. Bill

as I read your poem, I thought to myself, "Why then, do I complain?" I forget the wisdom and depth you've expressed here, Nicely done, hubby, Sara

We all fall short of the thankfulness and gratitude we should be feeling and expressing, Sara. Fortunately, God understands and forgives. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill
