Are We Thankful ?
This morning my husband and I sat in the early morning hours, listening to the birds, watching the leaves gently fall to the ground. My mind went back to a beautiful song I remember from years ago, I Just Came To Talk To You, Lord.  It's more beautiful and the words touch my heart more now. Maybe it's because God has answered many prayers  since I first heard the song. Maybe it's because I realize I have spent more times receiving blessings than I have giving thanks.    As Thanksgiving approaches, what better time to say, "Thank You" to God and make a decision to let everyday be a day of Thanksgiving.  

 
 
 I Just Came To Talk With You, Lord
by Dottie Rambo

I didn't come here to ask you for anything
I just came to talk with you Lord
You've answered a million prayers or more
That I forgot to Thank You For
I just came to talk with you Lord

Maybe tomorrow
There'll be trouble and sorrow
And a thousand teardrops may fall
But until I face tomorrow's task 
I have no special favor to ask
I just came to talk with you Lord

 

"Know that the Lord Himself is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter His gates with Thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
His loving kindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations."
Psalm 100:3-5
NASB
