"Are You Waiting?"

"Do not wait to give thanks until
every prayer is answered. Do
not wait to give thanks until
things are perfect. Give thanks
where you are, in the present
set of circumstances, in the
conditions in which you find
yourself." Martha Smock

We look around us and give
thanks for what we see. We
have much to be thankful for.

Sometimes we have this idea
of how things should be or
things we want to accomplish,
and because they aren't done,
we withhold our thanks. We
think the gratitude comes
when all is completed.

Martha Smock reminds us in
the above quote that we are
not to wait to give thanks.

When we really see what is
going on with our process, we
find things to be grateful for in
it. Perhaps the greatest thing
we can give thanks for is
knowing that Spirit is present
in it.

What is going on with you
now? Have you been waiting
to give thanks? Are you
willing to express your
gratitude for what is here now?

Let Us Pray:
Sweet Holy Spirit, we are
grateful for the knowledge that
You are always present with
us. We have much to be
grateful for. We release the
need to wait for completion,
and we now look for any
opportunity to express our
thanks. Thank You, God.
Amen.

I am grateful for you. Thank
you, also, for sharing our
work with your friends. We
do have much to be grateful
for, and we are.

Love,
Sandy
