Thanks To The Lord Our God

I give thanks to the Lord our God. I praise His Holy Name. For he has given me new life. He took my brokenness and comforted my soul. Though I was bound in sin, He gave me true freedom. Through the cross I am renewed. His blood has washed away all the scars that had plagued my life. Jesus is my true friend. He never gives up on me. It is His love that has saved my marriage. Once I gave up myself for Jesus my love for my wife has increased. She means the world to me now. I’ve also increased my awareness for my kids. They are a bundle of joy to be around. It is amazing what I can see now, since Jesus has come into my life. My Lord has given me a new outlook at life. All I want is less of me and more of others. To show kindness and love towards one another brings me great joy.

I can feel the arms of Jesus in my life. Each day that I seek Him, He is right by my side. When I knock He answers. He is aware of my family and my life situations. If I am feeling anxious about something He gives me guidance. I am able to find a way to escape the traps that are before me. We are blessed to have a loving God. He cares so deeply for us that He would die for us. The Lamb of God paid the price for our sins that we might live again. We are able to stand blameless before God if we follow in His ways. Thank You Jesus for Your saving grace. It is Your mercy that I am here with You now. You bless my soul with great wisdom. Your blessings truly enriched my life. I am grateful for all that You’ve given me. You are blessed above all Names. I lift You up high. I love You, my Lord.

1 Corinthians 1:4-8 (KJV)
4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;
5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;
6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
