I remember taking this
photo as I was driving to one of my mission churches in Halfway, Oregon, and it
reminds me how thankful we should all be all year round, not just one day in
late November. As many people return to their normal daily routine, may they
always remember to give thanks to God almighty for so many blessings they
receive. This simple wooden cross on a hill
reminded me of God’s beauty all around, and the
presence of faith where we least expect it. May we continue to show gratitude every day of
our lives.
“O God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry;
When I have work, help me to remember the jobless;
When I have a home, help me to remember those who have no home at all;
When I am without pain, help me to remember those who suffer....
And remembering, help me to destroy my complacency;
Show more my compassion, and be concerned enough to help;
By word and deed, those who cry out
for what we take for granted. Amen.”
