Thanks

I am deep into the creative process here and the theme is “thanks”.  I am just in the beginning research stage and found 192 verse  with some form of the work “thanks”in them: 

thank  27, thanked  11, thankful  4, thankfully  1, thankfulness  2, thanking  6, thanks  113, thanksgiving  39, thanksgivings  2, thankworthy  1

This was supposed to be a simple project that was to be ready to post in November, but I have found there is so much more depth to the subject that the project will be a little larger than anticipated. I am excited – I know this is an exercise that I need for myself. I thank God for everything – both the bitter and the sweet.
