1000 gifts of thanks (21-25)

holy experience

I thought I would start off my thankfulness with a poem by Pauline Ressler.

Thanksgiving

I’m thankful for my family,

for my home,for food, for friends,

And all the many blessings which

For the refreshing summer rain,

For flowers, trees, for birds and bees,

And for the sun’s warm glow.

 

I’m thankful for the fellowship

Of Christian staunch and true,

United in one brotherhood,

The Church’s work to do.

I’m thankful for the Holy Word,

And for the Holy Spirit near

To lead me day by day.

 

I’m thankful for God’s greatest gift-

That Christ has died for me;

Oh, how I need His grace divine,

His love and mercy free!

I know He’s interceding now;

He pleads at God’s right hand

That I may safely reach my home

In yonder glory land!

He works at an amusement park, and is around people all day long who standards, or morals do not quite match what we(through God's grace) have tried to instill in him. All day long he is whispered at about what he should have, and what he should be doing at "his age".  Today while reading the Word these verses stood out.... Proverbs 23 15  My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. 16  Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. 17  Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the  Lord  all the day long His heart started to "envy" what these whisperers were saying to him and started to feel like he has been missing out on something in life.  Really?  How do we envy sinners?  How do we as professing believers say "
