thanks



Dear God:

I want to thank you for what you have already done.

I am not going to wait until I see results or receive rewards. 
    I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until I feel better or things look better, 
    I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until people say they are sorry or until they stop talking about me, 
    I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until the pain in my body disappears. 
    I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until my financial situation improves. 
    I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until the children are asleep and the house is quiet, 
    I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until I get promoted at work or until I get the job, 
    I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until I understand every experience in my life that has caused me pain or grief. 
    I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until the journey gets easier or the challenges are removed,
    I am thanking you right now.

I am thanking you because I am alive. 
I am thanking you because I made it through the day's difficulties.
I am thanking you because I have walked around the obstacles.
I am thanking you because I have the ability and the opportunity to do more and do better.
I am thanking you because, Father, you have not given up on me.

God is good, all the time; and all the time, God is Good!

THANK HIM!
