7 Days of Thanks (Day 4)

Today:

I’m thankful for Jesus Christ

I’m thankful that the Lord sent His only Son to take my place and die on the cross for my sins.

I mean, what a sacrifice!

What Love!

That He would do that for me is just amazing.

Him, the Holder of the Universe, the Maker of Man, a Prince who willingly came down to die for me, a mere peasant... I’m overwhelmed and speechless; I can’t describe my appreciation.

For, in truth, I don’t deserve what He did for me.

But He did it anyways because He loves me.

And you know what?

 

He loves you too.

 

He loves you so much, He came down and took your place,

He died for your sins,

All because He loves you!!

All the wrong that you've ever done He's forgiven you,

All the dreams you've ever had, He Believes in you,

And in Him you can do anything!

J

John 3:16-17

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,

that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send His Son into the world
to condemn the world, but to save the world through
Him.

So today: I’m thankful for Jesus and the sacrifice He made for us, for without Him we wouldn’t be.

7 Days of Thanks (Day 3)

Today:

I’m thankful for healing

For God’s healing Grace,

and for His strength,

and the ability to overcome anything!

Maybe you know my story, maybe you’ve read my testimony, maybe you’ve been through something difficult and you know what I’m talking about. If that's so then I say:

“Welcome, you’re a survivor, too!!”

    But maybe you haven’t read my story, maybe you don’t know my testimony, and just maybe you’re going through a difficult time right now. Then perhaps you need to hear this:

I was born with a dislocated hip
It took four years of traction and body casts but Jesus healed me and
now I can walk!
Then, when I was ten, I was involved in a horseback riding accident;

I messed up my arm and injured my neck so it was another two years of traction.

But, again, Jesus healed me and now I can not only walk but ride!!

 

The whole ordeal was a true test of my faith and my belief.

It wasn't easy,
but I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything.

I’m a stronger person because of what all I’ve been through,

and my scars make me who I am.

I learned there are no limits to God’s healing,

and it's the same for you too!

    So if you’re going through a hard time right now, please don’t give up hope,

cause God is working in your life, He really is,

and you’re gonna make it through.

I did.

There ya go, today:

I am thankful that God healed me and that I got to share this story again with you.

Soooooooo how bout it? "What are you thankful for today?" Go ahead and leave a comment (you know you want to) but don’t forget to be right here tomorrow for Day 4 of:

Today:

I’m thankful for my Friends

The Lord truly outdid Himself when He created my friends!

You guys are awesome!!!

    New friends, best friends, friends I’ve known since Kindergarten, friends I’ve known since birth; our circle may be small but we’re close and we love each other.

They’re the true kind of friends who you can call anytime,
who will do anything for you,
and I would do the same for them in a heartbeat.

They’re the friends you can laugh with,
cry with,
and laugh with some more.

Sometimes we’re crazy;
we do and say things that only we would understand,
(gotta love our inside jokes)
But we "get" each other,
and that’s what makes y'all so great!!

I luv u guys!! :)

    So today I'm thankful for my Friends.

    Oookay, what about you? "So what are you thankful for today?" Don't be shy, go ahead and leave a comment, oh and don't forget to check back here tomorrow for Day 3 of:

    My Dad is amazing, he amazes me every day. He coaches me and teaches me; I can always learn something new from him!
