A Thanksgiving Grace For Us All

November 27, 2013 By momcafe 21 Comments

A Thanksgiving Grace

 

Another day of plenty, I ponder this time.

 At the top of the mountain

 I forget the climb.

 So many buried in rubble below.

 Or struggling halfway

 Or stuck to and fro.

 

 The Lord, my Redeemer

 Shines Light on my goods.

 And in that fine moment

 I realize I should.

 

Count every last blessing

 Of all we possess.

 And pray for and give to

 Those burdened with less.

 

Amen.

Thanksgiving prayer, Grace,  

 


Have a beautiful blessed Holiday, dear friends!!!

    I was having trouble leaving a comment there so I’ll leave it here too:
    Ugh, I’m not sure my comment went through! My computer freaked out. Anyway, this is stunning, beautiful poetry. And you wrote your descriptions in ways in which we are all lucky enough to relate with.
    Happy Thanksgiving, Chris! I’m thankful for you.

      I love you. I am SO grateful we connected… you are a constant blessing in my life. XOXOXO Happy Thanksgiving dear friend.

        After the day I’ve had, I’d like NOTHING better. I shall consider this a formal invitation – see you in a few hours

        (I wish!)

        Have a gorgeous time *HUGS*
