Thank You For Lesser Blessings

I pray to The Lord to thank Him, for gifts He provides each day. A prayer of thanksgiving to Jesus, for the blessings He sends my way. I thank you Lord for the lesser things, and not think it so odd, for I know that even the smallest, is given by The Grace of God. Thank you for a stove and a pantry... for a blanket, pillow, and bed... for clean sheets, warm covers, and pajamas, and sending my daily bread. Thank you for washcloth and towels... for soap, a tub, and sink... for tube of toothpaste and toothbrush, and a faucet of cold water to drink. I have taken so much for granted, hardly given it much thought, but from now on I will pray to thank you Lord, for these lesser blessings wrought. I have prayed a prayer of thanksgiving, for provisions The Lord has given; may we promise and always remember, to be grateful thankful children! Milton L. Delgado February 19, 2008
