may you give thanks,
both in times of blessing
and hardship.
may you see the hand of God
working in your life in all you do.
may you know
that the sun and rain
fall
both on the wicked and the good,
and that God is the giver
of every good and perfect gift.
may you stop
to consider
not only
your desires that remain
but your desires fulfilled,
and may you know
that you are blessed,
no matter where you find yourself.
