Thank You, Lord

A slit of ray of sunlight upon your pillow in the dawn.
A still quiet morning moment assuring you that nothing can go wrong.
A pleasant youthful memory of a favorite game played.
The quiet security experienced when at a silent moment you prayed.
Thank You, Lord.
The joy and happiness you experience when among close family members and friends.
The lone tear across you cheek over gratitude that the closeness will never end.
The simple awe and wonder of beholding a tender flower in the sun.
The engulfing peace you feel when the sun sets - the day is done.
Thank You, Lord.
