In Everything Give Thanks Even though I clutch my blankets and groan when the alarm rings each morning, thank you Lord, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf. Even though I keep my eyes closed tightly against the morning light as long os possible, thank you Lord, that I can-see. There are many who are blind. Even though the first hours of the day are hectic, when socks are lost, when toast burns and tempers are short, thank you, Lord, for those wonderful children to get off to school. There ore many who are childless. Even though I sometimes maintain a martyred silence when I should speak, and I spout forth when I should remain silent, thank you, Lord, for the gift of speech. There are many who are dumb. Even though our breakfast table never looks like pictures in the Ladies' Magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced, thank you Lord, for the food we have. There are many who are hungry/ Even though the routine of my job is often monotonous, thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to work, for there are many who are unemployed. Even though my spouse complains that I don t listen to his words, and he pays less attention to my ideas and my wise instructions, thank you Lord, that we have each other. There are many who have no one. Even though I seldom hove time to visit, thank you Lord, for the good neighbors and relatives. There are many who are exiled from their homeland. Even though I don’t always approve the way our country is run, thank you Lord, that I live in the greatest nation on earth. Even though I grumble and gripe and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my modest circumstances were not so modest, thank you Lord, for the gift of life. Help me to improve my manners and show that I am grateful. A* Sunday School — 9:30 A. M. • Morning Worship Services — 10:30 A M. (Services For All Ages.
