My beloved Jesus ... today is Thanksgiving Day ... day to pause in daily work and awareness of all the blessings you pour on me every day ... day to look to heaven to say: Thank you my Lord, many heartfelt thanks ...
Thank you for life ... and by the desire to live it for you and for you ... Thank you for my wife, for having touched your heart and show you all Your greatness ... Thanks for my child and be working in your life ... Thanks for my parents ... by my sister, her husband and my nephews ... Thanks for all my family ... and thanks for all the love you offer me through them ...
Thanks for my coworkers ... by my friends, especially all those who share my faith and help me to persevere on the path to sainthood ... Please people put in my path every day: at work, in the parish in college and through the Internet ... Thanks for the words that guide me through them ... and for allowing me to serve as the mouthpiece when you talk to any of them ...
Thank you for my work ... and thank you very much for the ministries in which they have called me to serve you ... Thank you, because despite my inadequacy, my littleness and my lack of ability, gross and You always supply what I need -- what is almost everything! - To complete your work ... and thank you, because when I feel more tired, you strengthen me and give me encouragement to keep me going ...
Thanks for the blessings and thank you pour about myself, my family and my loved ones ... Thanks for the gift of prayer ... for all the prayers heard and the many favors granted ... Thank you for the gift of faith ... by the gift of confidence ... and all you brought peace to my life ...

Please the patience that I've had ... and waiting with open arms every time I walked away and then come back to you ... sorry
As I said at the beginning, today is a day to pause ... stop in our work and in our hurry ... stop in our particular situation in our sorrows and our joys ... high in our lives ... and say: For all, thank you ... thank you very much with all my heart!
