“I don’t see where I have anything to be thankful for,” said the 95 year old man grumpily as he trimmed roses in the garden of his suburban home, and looked across the yard at his wife.

Thankful in All Things
In everything, give thanks.
At every time, even when it’s time to do something unpleasant,
In every place, even where you don’t want to go,
In every way, even sometimes in ways you find strange,
For every one, even the people you really don’t like,
For every privilege, even those you’d rather not acknowledge,
For every trial, even when they seem overwhelming,
For every blessing, even the ones so common you don’t notice,
In everything, give thanks.
(A free meditation on 1 Thessalonians 5:18a.)
