During this season and everyday, we must be thankful for what we have. There are some who are without. So, let this poem inspire you!

Be thankful when you one pair of shoes

because there are some people who walk bare foot and has less han you.

Be thankful when you have one option for a meal

because there are some who have no food. Makes you wonder how that feels.

Be thankful when you know Christ and are unemployed

because there are some who still have that empty void.

Be thankful if you have the ability to see

because there are some who would do anything to see you and me.

Be thankful everyday that you are breathing on earth

because God gave His all, His son, His first!
