1) There is a good, powerful, and wise God who reached down to communicate, love, and redeem me!
2) I have a body that (for this day) is able to work, serve, and fulfill my responsibilities.
3) I have a mind that (with the Spirit’s help) can take in God’s truth, discern right from wrong, and process all the events around me wisely and accurately.
4) I have a heart that loves, passionately pursues, and rejoices in true beauty---from the little things all around me to the supremest of all Beauty: God himself.
5) When I fail in #’s 2, 3, and 4, Christ’s sacrifice stands in my place so I am not condemned. I am clothed in the righteousness of Christ---beautiful garments of pristine perfection…on me!
Thank you, Lord, for all these blessings…each given by your good hand and bought with your blood.
May I rejoice!!
(Rain or shine)
This is just what I needed to hear. Thanks for the good reminder and encouragement, mom!
