Here is a thanksgiving prayer from
the Vision 4 Life website.
Harvest Reflection
Harvest of memories
As farmers view their
crops,
weigh up the growth and
likely yield,
so in this quiet place
my mind seeks patterns
in the landscape of my
life.
Growth at times has come
both strong and
fruitful;
else when the harvest
time has
brought a sparse return
of small and bitter
grains.
Plentiful and lush,
dry and meager—
the years have passed
until once more I pause
to sing of
‘All good gifts around
...’
... and with experience
fed
by all life’s varied harvest times
my thanks is honest, deep and true.
