THINK+++

I have good news for you; don’t fear all the things that could keep you out of heaven, only one thing will bar you from entering there and that is if you refuse to believe on Jesus and refuse His blood to cover your sins.

Life can be so mean; if only my children could stay small so that life would not be so harsh for them. One night as I was tucking my children in bed one of them asked me why I was crying. I told them it was complicated but that someday they would lose the innocence of childhood and be asked to be a soldier who would get wounded, weary, and fearful.

Lord today I want to thank You heartily for my wife and that I have never regretted marrying her.

Thank You Lord that we can teach our children to pray.

What do you think Jesus would have been doing a couple thousand years ago? He would have been just over a week old. Would he be smiling for his parents? Maybe a giggle or two? 

Thank You Lord that when I am in mental anguish you often give me a song to sing. Have you noticed that birds usually start the day by singing?

Thank You Lord for small miracles. I lost my wallet the other day and I almost started to panic but a thought came to me to sigh a prayer. That calmed me down and soon I found my wallet. 

Thank You Lord for offering hope. Thank You for enthusiasm that can spring from hope. Despair suffocates but hope is like rain and sunshine to a plant.

Thank You Lord once again for the beautiful hoar frost. When the sunlight hits those magnificent diamonds they sparkle with joy!

I am thankful today that my wife has the heart and desire to be a mother. She is so critical to our family.

Today I am thankful for the science that allows us to go on road trips safely. Vehicles are so convenient, comfortable, and safe.

Thank You Lord that my wife loves to reach for my hand.

I was mesmerized the other day by the quietly, peacefully falling snow. I am thankful for the beauty of nature. 

Jesus has come! The balance of my sin is now even and I can be forgiven because Jesus has stepped on the side of the balance opposite my sin. No matter how big and heavy your sins are Jesus is more then capable to save you. 

Thank You Lord for the ability to speak. They say that our voice box sits lower in our throat then other animals; this is one feature (among many) that must be for us to talk with each other.
