Note to the Lord

Dear Heavenly Father:

On this Sunday, I wish to thank you for several things.

For the gift of entertaining both a sister-in-law and brother-in-law, for five precious days, I thank you.


For memory-making excursions, festive meals, laughter and tears shared with guests, I thank you.

For the gift of flowers from a friend, I thank you.



For an open house with family members and friends,  much abundance, food, music and happiness, I thank you.

For bright, sunny days and cool, lovely nights so perfect for sleeping, I thank you.


Today, Sunday, for rest and thinking back on such a perfect week, I thank you.

 For blogland and all the wonderful people I have been blessed to meet, I thank you.

 You are such a kind, loving and generous God. 

Your love for your children never ceases to amaze me. 


Love, Susan

Your note to the Lord is full of blessings in your life and I thank Him every day for many gifts.

I really loved your note to the Lord and the beautiful pictures. I try to write gratitudes often and they are always to God as I owe him all.

We will welcome a brand new church this coming Saturday..had the last service in our old church today. The congregation wrote thank you and memory notes and left them in a big box next to the new church...I'm so thankful to belong to such a lovely parish. I'm thanking God each and every day of my life!
