Though tired, weary, hateful days Will always come and go; There is one thing we trust in- There is one thing we know....
A better time is coming!
Even though the work is hard, And praise from fellows few; There is one thing we can remember, One thing we can do... Give thanks to God for health and job.
So push on friends and do your best And so give praise to God; For thankful children shall be blest With Peace, and not the rod.
Give thanks to God! After all, counting your blessings IS more fun than crying about what you don't have!

great poem revwhitewolf..sound advice..in your heading..remember a song years ago with that title at a christian conference camp.. praise is nice if it comes but if it dont...no worries..keep looking up..great poem
Hi, RevWhiteWolf, Thank you for reminding us to give thanks. Although I do give thanks for what I have, I look to those, equally worthy, who are not as fortunate. Left with sad wonder, I ask what can humanity do to alleviate, rather than exacerbate, these situations.
It's a great message! What's the point in agonizing over wanting more if you haven't figured out how to be happy and grateful for what you've already had?
