Thanksgiving Day.

Ten went off.
 He sent them.
 And one came back.
"None but this Samaritan?"
 Keep your faith.
 Salvation is yours.
 God is always
 In our lives.
"Verily,
 I say to you.
 Not a sparrow falls that
 God does not know about."

 Do we say: Thank You?"
 Always say: " Thank You, Lord."
 Yea, give thanks and praise.

As we send our young people off to war, we pray God will protect them, Gerard. You may have had a different intent when you wrote this, but that I what I saw in your words, especially after seeing the awarding of the medal of honor to a soldier yesterday. God gave him the strength and courage to help his commander and protect his unit. God bless you for sharing this inspring poem. Love, Carolyn
