Thank You Lord

Thank you for the many days that I have woken up
To a bright shiny sun, and even the days that come the rain and storms.

Thank you Lord for the hardships and trials . 
For without them I would not learn to be patient and wait on you.
For without them I would not learn to have strength and courage.
For without them I could not humble myself to you.

Thank you for your unconditinal love.
For without it I could not love others the way you have loved me.

Thank you for your mercy and forgiveness.
For without it my sins could not be covered by your blood ,
And I would be covered by shame.

And thank you Lord for your Grace.
For without it I could not serve you and I would be lost.
But you have found me and you are mine, and I am yours forever.
