It’s when you are in deep distress
And it feels there’s no rest
Or end to the turmoil
And things going wrong
That the temptation to give up is so real
Seems to be all you feel
It’s that time again to make a list
Of all things that came easily
As we begin to appreciate what we have already received
We make room for blessings unseen.
