Twenty-six years ago today we chose Jesus as our personal Saviour as we were buried with Him through baptism and raised up in newness of life... Today He is still our personal Saviour and best friend.

Whatever state
My life is in His Hands
His is in control
of all that touches me.

Whatever state
For I know
for now
I am exactly where
He has put me
Doing the work
He has given me.

Whatever state
Though I may not like
All that I am given
I know
All He calls me to
He enables me to do
and the outcome
is not dependent on me
but on Him
as I cooperate with Him.

For He has promised
to supply all my needs.
He has 1000 ways
His grace is sufficient.

For all my life
He has carried me
And never failed me

He works all things
For my good.

The day is just beginning, but as I pondered the new day and His many gifts, these are the things that I am thankful for this morning:
42. The Birds. This morning as I woke up I could hear the sweet songs of the birds as they sing their little hearts out, praising their Creator. I am thankful for the reminder that God cares for them and that He will certainly care for me.
43. Peace. I am thankful that I still live in a country of relative peace and can come and go without fear. But even more, I am also thankful for the peace that He puts in my heart on a daily basis.
44. Protection. In a country where there is much crime and violence, God has always taken, and still does take such good care of us physically. But even more I am thankful for the spiritual protection He provides for us, that He protects us from the power of the evil one.
45. His Word. How much I need to know the truth. It is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path continually. It fills me with courage, and hope and peace on a daily basis. It reveals to me a Saviour & Friend who always keeps His promises.
46. Beauty. As seen in the little things never fails to encourage and inspire me to look up - the little surprises and gifts, special treasures from His hand.
47. Health, Energy and the Opportunity to Serve others today.
48. A Sound Mind. The Ability to Think, Reason, Plan, Feel & Communicate.
Now it is your turn... What are you most thankful for today?
Be strong and of a good
courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it
is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. Deuteronomy 31:6
Never alone He will not fail us!
How have you seen His hand in your life today? How has He been faithful to you?
I have a Friend so precious,
So very dear to me,
He loves me with a tender love,
He loves me faithfully;
I could not live apart from Him,
I love to feel Him nigh;
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
Sometimes I’m faint and weary,
He knows that I am weak;
And as He bids me lean on Him,
His help I’ll gladly seek;
He leads me in the path of light,
Beneath a sunny sky;
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
He knows how much I love Him,
He knows I love Him well;
But with what love He loveth me,
My tongue can never tell;
It is an everlasting love
In ever rich supply;
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
I tell Him all my sorrows,
I tell Him all my joys,
I tell Him all that pleases me,
I tell Him what annoys;
He tells me what I ought to do,
He tells me what to try;
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
He knows how I am longing
Some weary soul to win,
And so He bids me go and speak
A loving word for Him;
He bids me tell His wondrous love,
And why He came to die;
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
