Thanks

Posted on | November 26, 2010 | No Comments

Sometimes God throws you for a loop and  you’re not quite sure why or what it’s for at the time. It’s hard to say thank you for those times.

But say it anyway.

For the short time I had to love my mom while she was living: thank You, Lord. For the trial that was her illness: thank You, Father. For what You taught me through it: thank You. That was grace.

For my Dad’s tenacity and how he kept hard truths from me: thank You, Abba. For his vulnerability and passing away: thank You. In those times You showed me how mercy is a part of Who You are.

For my family and their patience towards me: thank You.

For my family in the Lord, the bounty of their patience and the greatness of their wisdom and loving examples: thanks.

For the wrongs I have done and the punishment I didn’t get: thank You. Your kindness leads me to repentance.

For the times I want to be the greatest when You remind me I am less than the least but You called me anyway: thank You for the love You showed.

You are awesome, beautiful, gracious and tender toward me. And I deserve none of it. I can’t thank You enough.
