A Thanksgiving Prayer

Samuel F. Pugh







"O God, when I have food,

help me to remember the hungry;

When I have work,

help me to remember the jobless;

When I have a home,

help me to remember those who have no home at all;

When I am without pain,

help me to remember those who suffer,

And remembering,

help me to destroy my complacency;

bestir my compassion,

and be concerned enough to help;

By word and deed,

those who cry out for what we take for granted.

Amen."

Happy Thanksgiving, I saw this prayer when I went to N.H. today at the family gathering. So it is twice today and I thank you ...
