Thanksgiving Prayer
Lord, open wide my self-closed eyes
And shield my heart from Satan’s lies.
Make me see your gifts galore
Appreciate them each much more.
May I give thanks for all you give.
Without your grace I could not live.
Turn me from all brooding fear.
Remind me why my heart can cheer.
Make me grateful for your grace.
May I daily seek your face
To humbly bow my knee to you
And honor you for all you do.
Every challenge, every joy;
Things that thrill, and that annoy;
Things that please and satisfy;
Things I need to get me by;
Every moment of every day;
Every experience along my way—

Adam Nitz
My name is Adam Nitz. I was trained as a Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) Pastor and was privileged to serve a congregation in Michigan for three years. After much wrestling in prayer and evaluating personal and family considerations I resigned my call. Part of the new direction my life has taken includes creative writing. I’ve always loved to write. Growing up I filled notebooks with poetry and reflections on life, faith, people and God. I just recently published a novel. I took a real person mentioned briefly in the Bible and imagined what his life's journey may have been like. If you’d like to follow my journey as an author feel free to check out my other blog at www.adamnitz.com. Please check out my book: I Was There When the Giant Fell at www.createspace.com/4761654 or search the title on Amazon.com. I pray that God will use all these writings to bring more people into closer contact with his saving truth--his mighty Word and that hearts and lives are changed by God’s boundless message of grace.

Adam takes a big breath and speaks my heart and faith with accuracy for 5 minutes running.
I love the words. I hope many others digest them. Thanks.
