Thankful

Thankful
by: Pastor David Wood
Romans 5:1-5 NKJV
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces [endurance] perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Here I am reflecting on this Thanksgiving evening and I am thankful.
I am thankful for all the family who made their way to our house today to spend quality time and share a hardy meal. I am thankful for the gift of life and for the gift of family. I am also thankful for good food and this gift of time that we get to spend with each other. I am also thankful for pie. Specifically for the slice of chocolate pie with homemade cool whip on top that made its way to my belly today.
I am also thankful for the good news in these verses today. Our justification by faith that resulted in peace with God because of the work Jesus did on the cross on our behalf.
I am thankful for the Holy Spirit of God which our Loving Father pours on us lavishly like gravy on mash potatoes. Thankful that in Christ and filled with the Holy Spirit, that we can face anything that this gift of life brings our way and come out better and stronger on the other side.
So much to be thankful for today.
