Today I thank God for my eyes, Whose sight is at each dawn renewed, Who lift their gaze toward the skies To well with tears of gratitude. Today I thank God for my ears, That hear the songs of birds and wind, And cause my heart such joy to hear The Good News preached to all who’ve sinned. Today I thank God for my nose, To smell the sweetness on the breeze, The incense sent by prayers of those Who seek their Father on their knees. Today I thank God for my tongue, That tastes His goodness, tells it too. Oh, never sweeter song is sung Than when ‘tis sung in praise of You! Today I thank God for my hands, That learn His service day by day, That gives me means to understand The heart of Christ who loves always. Today I thank God for my feet, That bear good news to those who wait In fear to hear the tidings sweet That He forgives: It’s not too late! Today I thank God for my life. How ever can my words portray The beauties hid amidst the strife, The joy of knowing Him each day? Today I thank God for Himself:
Who bore the weight of sin and nail To heal my soul and make it well: Who will not ever change or fail.

Actually, what we should do is to always be thankful for everything that we receive. Regardless if the blessing is big or not, what we should do is to always be grateful all the time. God can hear all desires that come from our heart. I am hoping that all people would learn the said thing and try to live with it for the rest of their lives. By the way, every word that you said from this post was truly heartfelt. I felt that you were really grateful on things that are happening with your lives right now! That’s really good to know!

Meet YaashaNone of my life has gone the way it was "supposed to go," but I don't love my life any less because of the hardships and new directions. I see so much unexpected good in it, and I want others to see the good in theirs. Archives
