Thanksgiving Thoughts

We give You thanks for You sustain us

with real food and real drink.
You nourish us with friends as real as food
with joy as clear as water
with love as good as this meal.
This is enough .

We do not ask for more.
This is more than enough reason
to bless Your name forever.
Make us always mindful of those
who do not have enough
food and friendship
water and love and joy.
Give them enough
that they too may be thankful
Amen.
