-Even though I keep my eyes tightly closed against the morning light as long as possible, thank you Lord, that I can see. There are many who are blind.
-Even though I huddle in my bed and put off the effort of rising, thank you, Lord that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden.
-Even though the first hour of my day is early, when joints are stiff, eyes are sleepy, and tempers are cranky, thank you, Lord, for my family. There are many who are lonely.
-Even though our table never looks like the pictures in magazines and the menu is at times just leftovers, thank you, Lord for the food we have. There're many who have no job.
-Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my circumstances were not so modest, thank you, Lord, for the gift of life.
-Even though I stumble on my spiritual journey from time to time, thank you Lord for the gift of restoration. There are many who never find the path again.
-Even though I fail to always do what is right and often make bad decisions, thank you Lord for forgiveness. There are many who never repent.
