Thanking God

I thank God for ALL that He has done for me - 
                                 Loving me, keeping me, protecting me and
                                  Watching over me in good times and bad.
                                      For principalities and powers could
                                          Make a strong soul become 
                                               Weak under severe
                                                 Pressure and pain.
                                                  
                                                Thank him any way!
                                             
                                                  Resist the devil,
                                               God's Spirit is in you
                                             To help you fight, because
                                         Satan principally uses People, Things,
                                     Circumstances, Situations, those who Praise,
                                    Pray and Worship him and rejoice with you too.

                                               Thank him any way!

                                  They listened to Jesus, ate and drank with him,
                                   Yet nailed his hands and feet on Calvary's Tree.
                                     Thus, men in all times will try to bring each 
                                         Other down, disgrace and destroy.
                                            Would be good for all to follow
                                               In Christ's steps and dwell
                                                    In radiant peace.

                                                   Thank him any way!

                                  Even when trying to get up each time you go down,
                                    There is often someone or something to try and
                                         Make you internalize what they think is
                                            Going on or is happening to you - 
                                              Strife, barriers, blocks, lock-picking,
                                                      Unauthorized entrances! 

                                                       Thank him any way!

                                  Praying and competing to "jump" higher for Jesus,
                                    Ask whether thins are so! They become like satan 
                                      Telling Even that if she eats the fruit she
                                         Will not die. Herself and Adam died 
                                         After helping to procreate the earth. 
                                            Like them, God uses the talents 
                                               Of those who do not serve 
                                                   Him, but they do have
                                                 An opportunity to repent. 

                               I thank God that, like under a turtle's Shell, I could go 
                                 Under his powerful wings and shut out EVERYTHING:
                                       Not Seeing, Hearing or even Listening to 
                                         Negativity, Bad wishes and those who
                                             Interpret Kindness for Stupidity!

                                                       Thank him always!
