Dear Lord,


Grant me a Heart that seeks you, an Attitude that reflects your love to others, with Praises always upon my lips, with Purpose to serve You daily; Give me a Yearning within my soul to know more of You.


Lord, fill me with a spirit of Thankfulness for the Heavenly provisions of health, food and strength, an Appreciation for abundant blessings, meeting my every need; for the Nearness of Your Presence, for the Kindness and compassion You displayed through the Sacrificial Gift of Your Only Son, that I might have life.  Grant me Visionary faith to experience the Immense love you have for me.  Thank You for the promise that You will Never leave me, nor forsake me.  Grant me Grace, to place the events of each day in Your hands.


In Hawaiian, a single word often has multiple definitions, for instance "Ho 'omaika' i" can mean thanksgiving, thankful, grateful or praise.  So, whichever version of Ho 'omiaka' i, you are this day, may it be blessed by who He is......

May Your Thanksgiving Day be touched with His love; may you be encouraged by the immense scope of who He is, and may you seek to know Him better, each day.

Happy Thanksgiving           With love,
