I AM THANKFUL…



I wake up every day, sometimes happy, sometimes sad but I wake up anyway.

I leave my house wondering why I don’t have a car I can hop into. I enter a bike, get to my destination and return safely all the time.

My food is ready but I don’t think it is good enough; yet my next meal awaits me.

I’m about hanging out with my friends and I don’t know what to put on. I’m nagging about how empty my closet is but it’s amazing I turn out looking good.

I whine always about how ugly I think my legs are but I move around with it everywhere and yes somebody says he loves it.

I grumble in my heart about how broke I think I am but still I haven’t one day been stranded.

I’m moody because I’m gradually becoming a size 12 but I go out and who I see next is a cheerful size 16.

It doesn’t readily come to mind that I haven’t been treated of any sickness since the beginning of the year.

It is not luck that I wake up every day, that I haven’t had any accident, I’m never without food, I remain pretty, and have not fallen ill.

It is not chance that I have a wonderful mother, siblings, and friends-a big family indeed.

It is not by I accident I stumbled into DCC and have the best pastors, leaders, and co-workers.

It is not a mistake that God sent his only son, Jesus to die for me, gave me a dependable friend, the Holy Spirit, I am never hopeless and I belong to Him alone.

I would not take for granted these things that others may deem little.

He is faithful and I am not; the only thing I can be is grateful.

Thank you so much Lord.
