Thank you God for another day!
O God you say whichever gifts would you, Man, deny and I humbly submit whichever gifts wouldn’t we thank you for! The truth is and I need not hesitate to confess that we can never ever reach in our lifetime the last number of your gifts to us. Our thanks will forever fall way too short of your blessings.
Your greatest gift to all forms of life - human life, animal life and plant life - is the very breath that you continue to send nonstop as long as we live. Have we thanked you for each breath of life? No! But your magnanimity doesn’t flinch.
Then you provide us with water to drink. Have we thanked you for every draught of water that we’ve drunk? No! But your grace doesn’t waver.
Likewise, food! Have we thanked you for each morsel? No! But your large heart has grown larger. You have not only forgiven our indifference but increased your bounties according to our needs. Clothes, shelter comforts! And we? We don’t thank enough. Instead, we pray for more!
O God forgive us our frailties and grant us the good sense to count your blessings.
Thank you God for another day!
