GRATITUDE

being thankful is an endless lesson. yet it's one of the most rewarding lessons. when you pause to think about all God has given you, it's astounding.

in an article i read over the weekend, the author wrote that when you turn your heart to a position of thankfulness
...you become aware that God's great gift of Jesus Christ was given not only for everyone, but for you. You belong. God has made a space for you. Whether you live or die, you belong to the Lord. A joyous surge stirs in you and you want to bow in humble gratitude.

in other words, just as we have a God shaped hole in our hearts, God has an us shaped hole in His heart! what a thought!

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son...
~John 3:16a~
