“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…
