Happy Thanksgiving

This week is a great time of year to reflect on life and the people in life that I'm are thankful for. My list is long of people who have helped make me who I am, inspired me to become better, and encouraged me along the way. But who am I the MOST thankful for? To whom do I owe everything?

My answer is simple. I am thankful for Jesus. Without Him, I am nothing. Without Him, I can do nothing. Without him, I know nothing. Without him, I have nothing. Without him, I would not be a good husband, a good father, a good son. Without Him, I would not be able to take my next breath, see my next sight, speak my next words, or think my next thought. Sounds a little extreme, you say? I say not! He is my way to relationship with God the Father. He is my escape from the tortures of hell, my entrance into the wonders of eternity in heaven. He has set my life in motion, and by His grace, mercy, love, and blood, He allows it to continue one heart pulse at a time.

In HIM, I am the righteousness of God. In HIM, I can do ALL things. In HIM, I walk in wisdom and knowledge. In HIM, I have all things.

Thanks be to God who has given for me, his one and only precious son, Jesus.
IN HIM.
