Thanks for sharing. I can tell you from experience that it is hard to be thankful through the pain. As my days of pain increases, it is easy to be filled with doubt. But, I have found that when I reach out to God, in my pain, that even if the pain doesn't go away, God gives me peace. We have alot to be thankful for.

I received this email today from a friend:

Dear God,

I want to thank You for what you have already done. I am not going to wait until I see results or receive rewards, I am thanking You right now.

I am not going to wait until I feel better or things look better, I am thanking You right now.

I am not going to wait until people say they are sorry or until they stop talking about me, I am thanking You right now.

I am not going to wait until the pain in my body disappears, I am thanking You right now.

I am not going to wait until my financial situation improves, I am going to thank You right now.

I am not going to wait until the children are asleep and the house is quiet. I am going to thank You right now.

I am not going to wait until I get promoted at work or until I get the job. I am going to thank You right now.

I am not going to wait until I understand every experience in my life that has caused me pain or grief, I am going to thank You right now.

I am not going to wait until the journey gets easier or the challenges are removed, I am thanking You right now.

I am thanking You because I am alive.

I am thanking You because I made it through the day's difficulties.

I am thanking You because I have walked around the obstacles.

I am thanking You because I have the ability and the opportunity to do more and do better.

I'm thanking You even if others give up on me, and I'm thanking You FATHER, because YOU haven't given up on me.


"People may be unkind, just be kind. They may cheat, just be honest. They may forget your good deeds, just do good. In the end, its really between YOU and GOD, it was never between YOU AND THEM. God Bless"
