- for running water
- and indoor plumbing
- for a toilet that flushes (and handles toilet paper!)
- for electricity in my house
- for fans to circulate the warm air in my apartment
- and fresh air not full of pollution
- for carpeting and linoleum rather than dirt floors
- for a shower --with hot and cold water
- for a kitchen with a refrigerator and stove
- for food in my cupboards
- and dirty dishes in my sink
- for a roof that doesn't leak
- and solid doors and windows
- for a comfortable bed
- and a closet full of clothes
- for shoes to wear
- and teeth to brush
- for a car that runs
- and money for gas to run it
- for medicine when I'm sick
- and good health most of the time
- for friends who care
- and kids in my life to play with
- ...their peals of laughter
- and eyes sparkling with mischief and joy
- for sand and sea and splashing in waves
- for making it to adulthood
- but still being able to be a child
- for a Father Who loves me beyond what I can imagine
...for these things and so many more, I am grateful...
AMEN!
