Griping to Gratitude

(picture from Wikipedia)
"My loving God,  You have turned my griping into gratitude, my screams of despair into proclamations of joy.  How can I help but explode with praises and vow to spend eternity in thanksgiving to You? 
 You are my hope and salvation, the morning star and the evening star, my shade in the desert heat, and my warmth in the cold of the night.
You are the Bread of Life, the life-giving springs when my soul is parched and dry.  You are the answer to my agonizing questions, the fulfillment of my deepest longings. 
I am Yours, O God, Yours forever!
Make my life a perpetual offering of praise."
(from Book of Christian Prayer by Leslie F. Brandt)
