Simplify...
Have you ever sat down for a meal with a 3 year old? You hold hands and begin the blessing before eating and then ask him if he would like to thank God for anything. He starts thanking God for his milk, for his rice, for his chicken, for his friends across the street....for the simple things. He doesn't use flowery language to thank God. He doesn't try to impress God with what is giving thanks for. He is just thanking God for the everyday blessings.
And God loves it! "...Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these" Matthew 19:14.
I pray that we can come to God with the child that remains in all of us, giving thanks for all the little blessings He gives us every day. Thanking Him as our Father. And through that process of giving thanks, we will be receiving all the blessings with which He has honored us.
In His Grace...
