Thanksgiving


Father, we around this table thank Thee:
  • for Thy great gift of life,
  • that Thy love for us is not dependent upon any worthiness of ours,
  • for good health,
  • that we know neither hunger nor want,
  • for warm clothes to wear,
  • for those who love us best,
  • for friends whose words of encouragement have often chased away dark clouds,
  • for the zest of living,
  • for many an answered prayer,
  • for kindly providences that have preserved us from danger and harm.
(The Prayers of Peter Marshall, p. 84)
