Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow



This Thanksgiving prayer by Holley Gerth resonated so with my heart, that I wanted to share it:

Lord,
Even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like day,
for darkness is as light to you.
Psalm 139:12

There is no circumstance not in your keeping,
no life not in your care.
We trust not because we understand
but because we know--
that you are good always,
faithful forever,
molding, making,
turning all in our lives
into something for your use.
So this Thansgiving we praise--
for life restored from near death,
for hope that carries our hearts along,
for love that holds us all together
even as we are held in your hands.
Amen.
