A week of grace...

My Lord,

Thank YOU!

Thank you for the safe travels that you gave me when I traveled to and from Ohio.  Thank you for protecting the pilot and all the passengers on the plane.

Thank you for the wonderful time that I had visiting my dad, my siblings, sister-in-law and nieces.  I also got to meet Aubrey; my great niece.  She was so absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you for all the yummy meals, pre-Father's Day dinner with dad at Red Lobster, the chocolate almond ice-cream, the tennis, the lazy days on the sofa, the walks up and down Market Street and the #sunshine.  Thank you for the fellowship that I had when dad left for the Hall.  I was able to have "church" with WAVA and to also listen to an awesome sermon from Dr. Stanley on #Listening For God.

Thank you for the tears.  I love when I am in a place of humility with You and your presence completely overwhelms me.  I still cry and I am still so very sensitive to Your Spirit.  I love you so much and I still need you day-after-day.  I never want to be without you.

THERE are still so many things that I don't understand my Lord and so very much that I've yet to learn, but I will not give up on YOU and I will not stray away from Your Word.  I thank you for hearing my heart's cry and for listening to every prayer request. I need You and your truth to guide, instruct, teach, comfort, direct, provide, strengthen and protect me.  I cannot do this life on my own.

Thank you for the amazing display of lightening bolts that you showed me to and my dad.  I recorded it and put it on Youtube.  Thank you for Youtube and the ability to share Your Glory there.  At first I was not sure on what to do with all of your goodness and all of your #ROMANS 1:20 revelations.  Thanks to the internet, blogging and Youtube, I get to share You with anyone who searches the net. 

I cannot keep your goodness to myself and even I need a reminder of just how awesome and amazing you are.  To many, a sunrise is no big deal and to many others, they all appear the same.  BUT not to me.  EACH and every sun-gift is an awakening of YOUR Spirit greeting my Spirit and I look forward to each and every one.  I embrace the thunder, the moon, the stars, rainbows and clouds too.  I am spiritually 7 years old and I still get all giddy inside when You show off in the sky! 

Thank you for being my God and my Sweet Savior.

Thank you for the discussion that my dad and I had about heaven and hell.  Thank you that because of YOUR gift of Salvation and Your selfless act of going to the CROSS for my #sins, that I am no longer hell bound.  Thank you that I am in the Lamb's Book of Life and that I have a place in Your Kingdom. 

I can never earn my way and I can never repay You and by Your unending grace, I don't have to.  All that I do, I do out of pure LOVE!  Father I love YOU!

Eternally yours
