Gratitude

A walk in the woods with the snow falling.

A hot cup of coffee and a chat with a friend.

Diving under the blankets when the wind howls.

A warm sun.

A laughing baby.

A hearty bowl of stew.

These pleasures are all brought to you by God.

Mothers and fathers and children and families.

The tulips in April and the fiery hillside in October.

The watermelon and the raspberry.

Green grass and blue sky.

The starfish and the mountain ram.

These gifts are all brought to you by God.

Laughter. Sight.

Rain. Fresh air.

A mind. A purpose.

These wonders are all brought to you by God.

Peace for your soul.

Forgiveness for your sins.

Love from the heart.

Freedom from condemnation.

These marvels are all brought to you by God.
