Thankful Thursday ~ Life

“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” ~ Romans 6:23 (ESV ~ emphasis mine)

This post will be a little about my earthly dad. Yes, I am thankful for the life my earthly dad lived. Even though toward the end (at the tender age of 51), he suffered a lot, but he still lived life with cheer.

If you read my post this past Monday at Laced with Grace, not all people who are suffering live their life with cheer; they end it before it really started. My dad always you use to say “You are unique. Only you can do the things God set you out to do”. I couldn’t agree more. Although there are people with the same skills you might have, but only YOU can do them a specific way.

David is talking in Psalm 139 exactly about the same thing ‘I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made…’ (v. 14). Believe me, some days I wish our Lord would call me home, because life is just too stressful. But then again, I praise Him also for the days I am here; to share about Him and His unconditional love. Yup, I am thankful for life…

What are you thankful for this week? Please share your thoughts by leaving your link below to your Thankful Thursday post.

Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: Life might be not what you have hoped for, but you are fearfully made in His image–your life is a gift 🙂 …
