Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all
circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians
5:16-18 NIV)
My God, I have never thanked You for my thorns. I have thanked You a thousand times for my roses, but never once for my thorns. Teach me the glory of the cross I bear; teach me the value of my thorns. Show me that I have climbed closer to You along the path of pain; Show me that, through my tears, the colors of Your rainbow look much more brilliant.

Lord, help me to remember to be thankful for the roses and the thorns, for
the good and for the bad, for the joy and for the pain, for the pretty and for
the ugly – all things in my life.
