To See And Understand

 

You woke me up again today,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
You gave me enough food to eat,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
You gave me shelter from the storms,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
You gave me work, a chance to help,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
You kept me safe and brought me home,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
My chores are done, and I can rest,
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
They seem mundane, just little things,
But still my thanks, I lift.
For little things become big things.
When lost, they cause a rift
That turns my peace to anxious fear
As my world goes adrift.
 
The fact that I understand this…
Thank You, Lord, for that gift.
 
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
