be grateful

it's sunday, and i went to church.
be grateful! the sermon really hit me and i was crying. nothing is perfect. and we have to be grateful for the imperfect gifts that God has given us.

take your left hand, wiggle it. and be grateful b/c no everybody can do that.
if you have a watch on that hand. be grateful. every tick is a gift.
if you have a ring.it symbolizes a gift that God has given. even if it's imperfect.


be grateful in times of anxiety and dissapointment.

it's a lesson for people to learn, that one can only be grateful if one has experienced pain. and i AM grateful, for everything that has happened to me, and that God has an ultimate plan for me, and that he'll take care of me, and grant me eternal life.

i'll stand, with arms high and heart abandoned;
in awe, of the One who gave it all ;
i'll stand, my soul Lord to you surrender;
all i have is Yours.

i know that God will heal my heart, no matter how broken it is right now.
come to the Father, though your gift is small,
broken hearts, broken lifes, He will take them all....

let me be what I used to be, heal me so that I might recover.

Amen.
