Giving thanks

The other day I caught myself  thinking about what it truly means to be thankful and I guess this is my take on the matter.

When plates collide and volcanoes boil
as feet burrow deeply into their toil
where oh where do eyes turn?

When waves come crashing miles over head
while heart ever weary flows deeply with dread
where oh where do eyes turn?

When hands meekly toiling have hardened like stone
deep inside pockets as dry as a bone
where oh where do eyes turn?
Seek him and one shall discern;
from trials true blessings we earn.

brighter then lava of volcanic spray
stronger then current in battle of day
sounder than what shall decay
steadfast and without delay...
so cast eyes upon God and pray.

I guess what I am saying is, even in the darkest moment, look up!
for beyond the seconds of trial and the minutes of tribulation, in God lies an eternity of love and peace. So why not thank him now for the blessings that are sure to come later.

questions...

Have you ever heard something that you just had a hard time believing? That happened to me a few days ago and I am still as confused as I am shocked. This really is one to give to God ... may all hearts, souls and beings affected find comfort and guidance from God.
