It is through
the Lord's mercies that
we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not.
Lamentations 3:22 (KJ2!)
GO:
Thank You…
8 gathered round. Food enough to
pour off the table and onto the sideboard. Blessings offered by the uncle who
blessed our union, each of our children, and all of our lives. Three
generations around a dining room table, a lovely picture.
We gave thanks, but the prayer I offer silently, continually, was for a
gratitude deeper than I have ever know. From deep within me, not a Psalm of Praise,
but the words of Lamentations come. "It
is through the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed because His compassions
fail not."
"it's time to lay my weary
body down, but my house smells good, my mind is at ease, and tomorrow is going
to be a wonderful day. I am grateful. I have enough. All that is not already
well will be well in time. I have love. I have laughter. I have family. My cup
overflows...
There is much for which I can give thanks."
this was my FB status the night before Thanksgiving. It was my status Thanksgiving night. I have so much Grace it could be my status everyday. I was reminded by a friend that there are only three prayers (help, thanks, and wow), and I get it...
Lord, You have been my HELP. THANKS. I look at my life, such as it is, and say WOW. His compassions fail not, and I say "Thank You." Selah and amen
