giving thanks.

i don't want to be a person who chooses to be thankful one day a year.

may i learn to see the beauty, grace & gift all all things.
big & small. every single day for the rest of my life.
learning to view all things as gifts leads you to thanksgiving,
which leads to joy.  in every season of life, in every high & low,
lord, teach me to give thanks.
to rejoice in every circumstance,
to rejoice in all places of life.

the deeper your thanks, 
the greater your joy.

ps. i'm obviously reading 1,000 gifts right now. great book.
