O LORD, Our God, We Thank YOU


O, Lord our God, we thank You on this day that is set aside to express our gratitude for Your abundant provision to us. There are so many things that we simply take for granted because You are so faithful in providing them.

We thank you for the beauty of the world You have created that dazzles our wondering eyes.
We thank You for the shelter of our homes that protects us from the heat of summer and the cold of winter.

We thank You for the varied food of which we partake to strengthen our bodies.

We thank You for the abundant resources at our disposal that enable us to avail ourselves of the abundance that is ours.

We thank You for safety in our homes and for safety abroad--for the security that is ours because You have assured us that You will never fail or forsake us.

We thank You for the friendships we enjoy and for the family that surrounds us with their abiding love.

Above all, LORD JESUS, we thank YOU for dying a cruel death on the cross so we will never have to die. We thank YOU for rising from the grave so that we, too, may arise from death to life. We thank YOU for washing us in Calvary's font and setting us free from the pangs of sin, hell and the grave.

We thank YOU, LORD JESUS, for being our Maker, our Healer, our Comforter, our Teacher, our Guide, our Provider, our Friend, our Savior, our EVERLASTING GOD.
