The ABC's Of Thanksgiving (Poem)

The ABC's Of Thanksgiving

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame.

Even when times are hard -
Fierce winds are bound to blow -
God is forever able;
Hold on to what you know.

Imagine life without His love.
Joy would cease to be.
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee.

Move out of "Camp Complaining."
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone.

Quit looking at the future;
Redeem the time at hand.
Start every day with worship.
To thank is a command!

Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky,
We'll run the race with gratitude,
eXalting God most high.

Yes, there will be good times and there will be bad, but . . .
Zion waits in glory, where no one is ever sad.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
