Thankful Thursday ~ 5 Senses

“I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the Most High.” ~ Psalm 7:17 (ESV)

You might ask why I am thankful for the 5 senses — sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Well, I don’t know either — it ‘popped’ into my head this morning as I was driving to work 😀 …You know, we (I) take our senses for granted – not all people are blessed to have all 5 of them. I thought it would be a good idea to share my grateful heart that I still have them..

  • Thank You, Lord for the sense of sight. I am able to read my Bible, encouraging books, read traffic signs, see my family and friends smile, see the beauty You have created around us…
  • Thank You, Lord for the sense of hearing. I am able to listen to comforting words from pastors, teachers, music that gets me though the day. I am able to hear the words “I love you” said by my beloved, our son, or even friends…
  • Thank You, Lord for the sense of touch…I can embrace the face of my beloved, give a hug to a friend, and one day soon touch the hem of Your garment…
  • Thank You, Lord for the sense of taste…I can enjoy all the yummy foods, like pasta salad, chicken, apples, grapes, flavored coffee…
  • Thank You, Lord for the sense of smell…I enjoy the smell of fresh brewed coffee in the morning, fresh baked cookies, my favorite perfume, lit candles around the house…

Thank you for stopping by today. Remember – be thankful for even the smallest things in life. Keeping a grateful heart, praising Him in all circumstances, makes traveling the winding road of life a little easier…
