Giving Thanks

I’ve never made a fortune; it’s probably too late now.

That’s the first line of a song to which I was recently introduced.

As I listened to it for the first time, I absolutely loved and resonated with the lyrics.

It had that sweet country twang that just made me want to sing along.

For some reason and in some way, it reminds me of what some might call a “drinking song.”

But, it’s NOT.

Actually, it is.

It’s called, “Drinking From My Saucer.”

It’s about realizing how rich we really are with blessings overflowing.

Lyrics and link provided below.

May this serve as a reminder for us to:

• Shift our focus

• Notice our blessings

• Put our priorities in order, and

• Thank Him Always!

Because when we have a friend in Jesus, it makes us (rich) enough.

Wow . . .

“My cup has overflowed.”

Here’s to more WOW Moments!

☕Drinking from My Saucer
‍ ‍Michael Combs

I’ve never made a fortune; it’s probably too late now

Oh but I don’t worry about that much, cause I’m happy anyhow

As I go along life’s journey, I’m reaping better than I sow

I’m drinking from my saucer, cause my cup has overflowed

Ain’t got a lot of riches, sometimes the goings rough

But I’ve got a friend in Jesus and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for all His blessings on me, and the mercy that He’s bestowed

I’m drinking from my saucer, cause my cup has overflowed

Oh, sure, I’ve been through some storms

And yes, I’m sure there were times when my faith…

Well, my faith must have got a little thin

But you know what it seemed like

One day, all at once, those dark clouds broke

And that old sun, she started shining again

So Lord help me not to grumble and complain about the tough rows I have hoed

I’m drinking from my saucer, cause my cup has overflowed

And if I should go on living; if the way gets steep and rough

I won’t ask for other blessings cause I’m already blessed enough

May I never be too busy to help another bear his load

And I’ll keep drinking from my saucer, Lord, cause my cup has overflowed
