Thank You, Lord

Thank you, Lord, for all of those times you protected me when I made a mistake or had an error in judgment while driving the car.

Thank you, Lord, for saving that friendship when I foolishly said something unkind.

Thank you, Lord, for answering my prayer and healing me from that ailment that caused my spirits to plummet.

Thank you, Lord, for humbling me when my pride starts growing too large. I may not want it – but I need it.

I’m so thankful, Lord, for all those nights you listened as I prayed while lying in bed; unable to sleep. It’s so reassuring to be able to pour my heart out to you.

Thank you for saying “no” when I asked you so many times to say ‘yes.’ You truly knew the better answer for my life. Oh – and Lord? Thank you for the times you DID say yes! I continue to feel blessed by those moments.

There are so many things I could thank you for. So many times you have done something for me out of love. 

Today I want to remember. Today I want to acknowledge.

You are my Lord. My KING.

And I will serve you.
