Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.Imagine that! Jesus, through whom the universe was created, gave thanks for that simple meal of bread and fish.
I am very thankful for the gifts of God. I'm thankful to have food every day, as much as I want. I'm thankful to live in a peaceful country. I'm thankful for the four beautiful seasons we enjoy in Canada. I'm thankful for my wife, for my wonderful kids, for the fun we have together and for the love we share as a family. I'm thankful for the respect and support of my colleagues, and for people around the world who are praying for me.
I'm thankful, too, for the good in my current situation. Not for the cancer itself, but for its refining effect on my life, for the lessons I am learning, and for the way it draws me closer to God.
Thank you, Lord.
