Thank You, Lord

MADAM BUTTERFLY
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 not going to wait until I feel better or things look better;

I am not going to wait until people say they are sorry or until they stop talking about me;

I am not going to wait until the pain in my body disappears;

I am not going to wait until my financial situation improves;

I am not going to wait until I get promoted at work or until I get the job;

I am not going to wait until I understand every experience in my life that has caused me pain or grief;

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 because FATHER, because you haven't given up on me.

    This is beautiful. I think I should print and hang it on my wall. I've been enjoying comments you've left on other writers articles so I just had to start reading your work. I knew it would be wonderful! I'm subscribing to you today.
