Lord, thank you
Thank God
for dirty dishes,
They have
a tale to tell.
While other
folks are hungry,
We're doing
very well.
With home
and health and happiness
We should
not want or fuss.
For by
this stack of evidence,
God is
very good to us!
A Housewife's Prayer
Lord, thank
you for this sink of dirty dishes; we have
plenty
of food to eat.
~~~~
Thank you
for this pile of dirty, stinky laundry; we have
plenty
of nice clothes to wear.
~~~~
And I would
like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds;
they were
so warm and comfortable last night. I know that many
have no
bed.
~~~~
My thanks
to you, Lord, for this bathroom, complete with
all the
splattered mirrors, soggy, grimy towels and
dirty lavatory;
they are so convenient.
~~~~
Thank you
for this finger-smudged refrigerator that
needs defrosting
so badly; It has served us faithfully
for many
years. It is full of cold drinks and enough leftovers
for two
or three meals.
~~~~
Thank you,
Lord, for this oven that absolutely must be
cleaned
today. It has baked so many things over the years.
~~~~
The whole
family is grateful for that tall grass that needs
mowing,
the lawn that needs raking; we all enjoy the yard.
~~~~
Thank you,
Lord, even for that slamming screen door.
My kids
are healthy and able to run and play.
~~~~
Lord, the
presence of all these chores awaiting me says
You have
richly blessed my family. I shall do them
cheerfully
and I shall do them gratefully.
(The "Thank
You's" were sent to me by
Betty Lou,
one of my Online friends....
Thank you
Betty Lou)
