The thing that I am most grateful for is God. God in all His fullness. God in His Trinity.
God the Father for choosing me, for plucking me out of the pit of my life, for trading me a life of misery and sin for one of hope and abundance--no one has ever claimed it was a fair trade. I am thankful for my Father's leading and guiding, discipline and protection.
God the Son, my Savior, who died. He died. For me. I don't get it. But I am so thankful for it. He is my example. He is not a High Priest who can't relate for He walked this treacherous, difficult world Himself once.
And He did it perfectly.
He saved me...from the world, from death, from sin, from myself.
God the Spirit who teaches me such beautiful truth. He leads me from within, fills me with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. Nine things I was lacking before He came to live with in. He is my Comforter, my Counselor.
God is precious to me.
I am also thankful for the life He has given me. He has given me the strength to be a good mother, to break a cycle of dysfunction in my family. If you didn't come from a broken messed up family you can't fathom how rescued I feel. How priceless His safety, and firmness is, how valuable and unestimable His Faithfulness.
I love 2 Timothy 2:13, that says:
If we are faithless, He remains faithful--
for He cannot deny Himself.
Thank You Daddy, Jesus, Spirit, for choosing me, for loving me, for NEVER giving up on me.
