Forever thankful....


I remember listening to the song Amazing Grace as a young girl and thought, "what a pretty melody." Now I listen to the words and my heart leaps for joy because these words echo my own testimony of God's mercy on my life.


I am forever thankful for Jesus and His faithfullness to me and my family. I am a new person because of Him and I share my new life with a wonderful godly man and two beautiful children who have a special love for Jesus.


I am forever thankful for His patience with me as He continues to mold me and change me.


I am forever thankful for the gift of His Holy Spirit that dwells within me and restores my soul, teaches me the riches of His Word, and comforts the deep hurts of my soul.


I am forever thankful for His sacrifice that paid for all my sins on the cross.


I am forever thankful for His faithfulness to provide our daily needs and abundant many blessings.


I am forever thankful for the Godly mentors and family He has surrounded our home with.


I am forever thankful for each breath He has given me and each morning He brings out the sun to give us a new day.


I am forever thankful for His guidance, His provision, His leading, His wisdom, His care, His love, His joy, His WORD, His thoughtfullness, His generosity, His mercy, His grace, His holiness......


....yes it would take eternity to thank Him for all He has done! Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me...I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see!
