Blessing #7: I thank God for Jesus Christ!It might sound kinda cliche and odd to thank God for Him,
but I have many good reasons for doing so,
though I'll just pick out two.
1)
He saved me before I was born.Well, He did that for everyone,
when He died on the cross and rose from the dead 3 days later,
more than 2000 years ago.
His blood cleansed me of my sins,
and tadah! I am saved!
2)
He saved me again.You see..
Everyone has a
past, and mine was pretty bad.
He saved me from literal spiritual, emotional, mental and physical death,
and when someone saves your life,
you would work your entire life to pay him/her back right?
Same concept.
And even after that, I could still be an ungrateful wretch,
but He always reminds me in words, actions, everything,
that my
faithlessness will never cancel out His
faithfulness.
I never was born feeling joy,
or having faith in God,
and I am someone who is
extremely hard to convince.
That's why.. When all those events happened,
it just opened my eyes, time and time again,
to how
treacherous the world is,
but also how
wonderful He is.
Now friends,
I'm not saying all these because it is my obligation,
I'm saying all these because it really happened to me,
I know He is real,
and I want you all to be part of the blessing.
This wraps up
Count Your Blessings week,
I hope you enjoyed it,
and I'll return to normal posting in the next one.
Enjoy your
Saturday,
Sunday and
Monday,
my friends! :)
