A Thankful Heart…
A thankful heart appreciates all the blessings it has each and every day…It knows that only God from His bountiful love is the provider and will distribute blessings as He ordains…It knows that thankfulness is a condition of the heart and that to be thankful is to let God know that it recognizes from whom its blessings come…
Blessings of the Thankful Heart
Friends to know
Hearing words that touch the soul
Having angels at every turn
Envisioning what can be
Imagining what may come to be
Work to do
Accepting what one cannot change
Knowing that life has more to offer than not to offer
Knowing that the spark in the heart is placed by a divine hand
Holding on to forgiveness and letting go of the past
Honesty in words
Being able to reach forth one’s hand to touch another
Being able to walk in the breeze and feel the wind blow
Seeing an ice-cicle and appreciating its purity and beauty
Time to share
Knowing that beauty is truly eternal
Recognizing that goodness seeks its own level
Understanding when not understanding would perhaps be easier
Dreams to relive
Family gatherings
Books to read
Forever to be spent in heaven
Love expressed in all ways
Health of body mind and soul
Vision when the way may seem dim
The Bible as life's guide-book
Prayer and the prayers of others
Picnics with fun-filled days
Rivers that run pure
Hobbies to enjoy
Mountains that speak of God’s omnipotence
Walks on fall days with a friend
Picking up seashells that surface from the ocean deep
Words written on pages from the heart
Sunshine that warms a day
Rain that sprinkles across the land
Snowflakes with divine design
Sleep that revives and refreshes
Dinner with a friend where food and time are shared
Dancing to music that touches the soul
Truly hearing music with one’s soul
Not counting the moments until tomorrow comes
Living in the moment...©
