I thank God for life.
For my blessing.
For my lesson.
For my instruction.

I thank God for my parents.
For my wisdom.
For my understanding.
For his forgiveness.

I thank God for the rain.
For my pain and my joy.
For everything, I had to bare to overcome
Oh, for so much more.

I thank God for my imperfection.
Placing signs before me to get my attention.
Even for my blemishes.
Letting me know none of us is so perfect.

I thank God for my enemy.
So of them jealous.
Some with deep envy.
When there really no need to be.

I thank God for seeing the best in me.
Even the qualities that I don't see.
