Psalm 73:25-26 (KJ)

²⁵ Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. ²⁶ My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.

Thank You 

I am having a flash back as I take a virtual journey through my faith files. Earlier I woke up this morning in a moment of reflection on the goodness of God. Occasionally I am panicked over something or anticipating something, that I have no control over; and just for a moment I forget who I am and whose I am. I quickly come to my senses and apologize to God. I then just began to stop and thank God for His priceless gifts in my life. I thank Him for the gift of family. I do not limit family to those who I was born into a relationship with, though I thank God for them, but included in my family, is my church family. I thank God for the priceless gift of love, unconditional agape love. I thank God for those who love me and that, I too, have been given the Holy spirit, to love others. I thank God for the priceless gift of God’s Word.  

God’s Word is alive and active. God’s Word never fails. Most of all, I thank God for the Priceless gift of Eternal Life, all made possible because of God’s unconditional love for me/us, that He gave His son, His only begotten son Jesus. I thank God for Jesus, who paid it all and has locked my/our relationship in place with God forever.  

Prayer 

Thank you God, for family, for friends, for faithfulness, and most deeply, for your Son, my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Thought for the day 

Nothing liked being hooked up with the Most High God; It is priceless!
