"To
go with our practice
of giving thanks for the food before eating,
Papa
loves getting the little ones
to fold their hands
and thank for the
food.
On Saturday he was asking Koen,
who is barely two now,
to repeat
after him.
So this is what we listened to . . .
Papa: Dear Jesus . . .
Koen: Dear Jesus.....
Papa: thank you . . .
Koen: you're welcome!"
I LOVE that prayer!
Before we can even think of
how to start on our long list of
'thank yous',
before we even have time to truly
'count all our
blessings',
which would take time and eternity,
before we can even utter over our lips
the words of thanks
percolating in the depth of our heart,
God, our awesome heavenly Father,
joyfully says,
"You're
welcome!"
Out of the mouth of babes!
Papa: Dear Jesus . . .
Papa: thank you . . .
Koen: you're welcome!"

Wonderful thoughts. I am praying that the season of thanksgiving will not end with the end of the day,but carry on all year.
