Thank you, Lord

New Year is a time to renew our thanks to God Almighty as we look back and count our blessings.

Truly, there are more fortunes than misfortunes, more happiness than sadness, more friends than enemies, more laughter than tears...

Let us thank God for being able…

…to live under a sheltering roof of a place we call home.

...to bathe ourselves with water from the faucet.

...to do things more conveniently and comfortably with the electric power on.

...to have food on the table.

...to have bonding times with the family.

...to work till we recline and call it a day.

Let us thank God for…

…the miracle of being able to open our eyes and wake up to a brand new day with the assurance that there is nothing that God and we cannot handle together.

…giving us 24/7 to live the purpose-driven life according to His will, nourished by His words and guided by the Holy Spirit.

…the precious Gift of Life and the chance to love and care, to serve and share, in making this world a better place.

All these and more...

Thank you, Lord, for another year…

Henry L. Yu, M.D.
