I Am Thankful…

by Chad Lewis on February 5, 2009

I am thankful…

…for God ambushing my heart when I was seven.
…for God holding me when I let go.
…for Jesus’ unwillingness to let my heart believe lies about him.
…for seeds of hope when days grow long and weariness is deep.
…for family who loves me no matter what.
…for a few heart friends who really know me and still accept me.
…for a Savior who I long to point others towards.
…for a past that is filled with heartbreak and wounds.
…for a God who holds me back from making unwise choices.
…for a God who sees me, knows me, and wants me.
…for a small, but real renewal going on in my heart.

We often focus on the negative aspects of our lives. We too often focus on the trials. If you had to write 10 things that you are thankful for, what would be on your list?
