Prayer Warrior Gives Thanks.

The Thankful Poor by Henry Ossawa Tanner.

Yet To Be #135

The Thankful Poor – 1894

In the picture above, Henry Ossawa Tanner depicts a elderly man and a young boy sitting with heads bowed.  The room is simple, the table is sparse with little if any food, yet these warriors of prayer are thankful for even the little they have.  

A warrior prays, believes, and gives thanks as if it is already received.
Accepting in all certainty that God is faithful.
We trust Him for guidance when we cannot see what lies ahead.
Not knowing what will be but believing it will work out for our good.
Then in all absolute confidence, we can give thanks.

Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise they glorious name. 1 Chronicles 29:13

Under the name Francis Lee, I write interracial Christian romantic suspense. My stories are about finding enduring love when hope and redemption seem unattainable as danger lurks around every corner. My characters learn that where there is darkness, "joy will always come in the morning".
