There is something to be said for all the grateful and kind work we have done over the past thirty days. Being grateful for everything from grass to grain, from husbands to wives, for children and for a simple life, there is no doubt that there is a certain serene calmness that over-takes oneself after truly reflecting with a grateful heart on our lives before us. With that said we leave you with an excerpt from a prayer for a blessed Thanksgiving…
And so, when I thank you for my daily bread, help me to share it.
When I thank you for my health, teach me to heal.
When I thank you for my companions, show me the courage to reach out.
When I thank you for my life, give me the grace to bless and protect the lives and dignity of others.
Lord, from the harvest of plenty, I have reaped so much.
And I offer only one thing in thanksgiving--
A heart made for loving.
Happy Thanksgiving!
