Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes; we have plenty of
food to eat.
Thank you for this pile of dirty, stinky laundry; we have plenty
of nice clothes to wear.
And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds; they were so warm and comfortable last night. I know that many have no bed.
My thanks to you, Lord, for this bathroom, complete with all
the splattered mirrors, soggy, grimy towels and dirty lavatory;
they are so convenient.
Thank you for this finger-smudged refrigerator that needs
defrosting so badly; It has served us faithfully for many
years. It is full of cold drinks and enough leftovers for two or three meals.
Thank you, Lord, for this oven that absolutely must be cleaned
today. It has baked so many things over the years.
The whole family is grateful for that tall grass that needs
mowing, the lawn that needs raking; we all enjoy the yard.
Thank you, Lord, even for that slamming screen door. My kids
are healthy and able to run and play.
Lord, the presence of all these chores awaiting me says You have
richly blessed my family. I shall do them cheerfully and I shall do them gratefully.
