My beloved Jesus ... Today is Thanksgiving Day ... day to make a break from daily tasks and become aware of all the blessings spill over me every day ... day look back to Heaven to tell you: Thank you Lord, many heartfelt thanks ...
Thank you for life ... and by the desire to live for You and for You ... Thank you for my wife, for having touched your heart and show you all Your greatness ... Thank you for my son and to be working in your life ... Thanks for my parents ... for my sister, her husband and my nephews ... Thanks for all my family ... and thanks for all the love you offer me through them ...
Thank you for my coworkers ... for my friends, especially all those who share my faith and help me to persevere on the path to sainthood ... Thanks for the people who put in my way every day: at work, in the parish in college and through the Internet ... Thanks for the words addressed to me through them ... and for letting me serve as the mouthpiece when you talk to any of them ...
Thank you for my job ... and thank you very much for the ministries in which I have called to serve ... Thank you, because despite my inadequacy, my smallness and my lack of ability, You always gross and supplement what I need - Why is almost everything! - To complete Your work ... and thanks, because when I feel more tired, you strengthen me and give me encouragement to keep going ...

Please the patience that I've had ... and wait with open arms every time I walked away and then come back to you ... sorry
As I said at the beginning, today is the day to take a break ... a break 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!
