DEAR GOD,

I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE ALREADY DONE. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL I SEE RESULTS; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW.I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL I FEEL BETTER; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE SORRY OR STOP TALKING ABOUT ME; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW... I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL  THE PAIN IN MY BODY DISSAPPEARS; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL MY FINANCIAL SITUATION IMPROVES; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL MY CHILDREN ARE ASLEEP AND THE HOUSE IS QUITE; I AM GOING TO THANK YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT TILL I GET A PROMOTED AT WORK OR UNTIL I GET A JOB; I AM GOING TO THANK YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL I UNDERSTAND EVEY EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE THAT HAS CAUSED ME PAIN OR GRIEF; I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL THE JOURNEY GETS EASIER OR THE CHALLENGES ARE REMOVED;

I AM THANKING YOU RIGHT NOW. I AM THANKING YOU BECAUSE I AM ALIVE. I AM THANKING YOU BECAUSE I MADE IT THOUGH THE DAYS DIFFICULTIES. I AM THANKING YOU BECAUSE I HAVE WALKED AROUND THE OBSTACLES.

I AM THANKING YOU BECAUSE I HAVE THE ABILITY AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO MORE AND DO BETTER.

IM THANKING YOU BECAUSE FATHER, YOU HAVEN'T GIVEN UP ON ME.

We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God.'
