what if?

"What if you woke up tomorrow...with only the things you praised God for today?"

If that were true, what would you praise Him for?
There are so many, many things, but here are a few of mine:
Salvation
Bible
Family....

but what if we went a little deeper? to the things that take effort to think about, things that may be painful for us?
I'm thankful that my Down's Syndrome cousin is here today...because I know that at best he has 10-20 years left to be with us...

I'm thankful that my Saviour offered His very life blood for a wicked soul like mine...

I'm thankful that today is "status quo" day....because at least we are safe and together, and have everything we need

I'm even thankful that Spring came so late this year, so I can rejoice more exuberantly in it's coming now....



And, here's an extra blessing for today....let me warn you first, it will probably drive you into shock...in a good way ! Here is a really great video that just gives you a little bit more insight into what God has done for us: http://ellerslie.com/Home.html
