PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

One’s thanksgiving that’s truly rife, comes from a Spirit filled life,
It is not about what we deserve, but, all about The God we serve;
It’s not about things on this sod, but, a relationship with our God,
All good things come from above, from God, in unchanging love.

We can display real thanksgiving, through the choice of our living,
That choice between Spirit or flesh, knowing the two do not mesh,
For one causes unrighteousness, while one fuels our thankfulness,
So to live for God is our choice, so that in our God we can rejoice.

We can walk in The Wisdom of, The Lord God, Who reigns above,
While we walk in The Spirit of Christ, as The Savior guides our life,
Walking in the light of His Word, applying all the Truth we’ve heard,
As more to God, of life, we give, in true Thankfulness we can live.

Fear is the beginning of Wisdom, as we seek first God’s Kingdom,
While in God’s Spirit we abide, His Word then becomes our guide,
With His Word as our guiding light, in a world where wrong is right.
While yielding to God, not to sin, He fills us with songs and hymns.

When thanksgiving fills our heart, God’s Love to others we impart,
When it’s God we choose to serve, we get more than we deserve,
When thanking God along the way, true joy and peace fills the day,
When filled with joy and singing, our life displays real Thanksgiving.
