"In everything give thanks for this is the will of God . . .
"In everything give thanks for this is the will of God . . .
I am thankful for the patience of God. He never gives up on me. Patiently, even at the age of 73, He continues to transform me into His likeness.
I am thankful for the kindness of God. He daily intercedes on my behalf before our Father. His grace is greater than all my sin. His kind forgiveness everlasting.
I am thankful for the comfort of God. He fills the empty places with His presence.
I am thankful for the lovingkindness of God. His loyal love for me is such an encouragement. He disciplines when necessary. He edifies when necessary. He encourages when necessary. He bares my burdens when necessary. His lovingkindness endures forever.
I am thankful for the gentleness of God. How many times has He stooped over to lift me up, carry me when I was flat on my face in failure. Strengthless. Weak and stumbling on the journey. And I have felt His embrace, His faithfulness, His love for me as my Father and God. His rest.
I am thankful for the joy of God. In times of heartache and disappointment, He has filled me with His joy--the joy that endured the cross for me. It is the joy that enables me to daily complete the ministry He has called me to do. It is the joy that engulfs me even when the sorrow is still there--incomprehensible.
I am thankful for the peace of God. Through the power of submissive, thankful prayer in all situations, He enables me to continue to love right and think right in every circumstance. It's presence surpasses all understanding.
