30 so years back I realized the family TDay was always going to be on the annual sched so why not have a prayer ready at hand. Wrote Old #1 and can rattle it off despite pre-dinner spirits.
–
Why am I so thankful for all of God’s blessings when others are so much in need?
Well, I’m thankful because She is not second guessing and pulling my warranty deed.
Why is She not saying now give me your life as I’ve given you yours in the past.
Countless millions have bled suffered torture and died,
did you think nice was going to last?

So I’m thankful, dear Lord, for this season of peace when my life has been going so well.
All I ask is this moment of rest and surcease
before you start giving me hell!

My brother’s grand kids would say that’s no prayer. I’d say it’s #1 in the book.
